Abstract
The purpose of this study is to investigate the entrepreneurship profile of faculty’s sports of Iran and offering the model of employment and entrepreneurship. The Gabe Standard Questionnaire (2012) with good validity and reliability was used to collect data .Results of the study of 11 components of entrepreneurship (vision, mission and strategy of the faculty, governance, and administration of the faculty, organizational structure and plan, multidisciplinary, transdisciplinary, influence and use of diverse resources, stakeholder management, and community values, graduates, knowledge transfer, The Center for Growth, Financing, College Risks, Internationalization, and Entrepreneurship Education and Training show that the situation of entrepreneurship and employment in sports schools is not at a good level. Students are not educated according to the needs of the physical education labor market. Given that in terms of 11 standard indicators, the employment and entrepreneurship situation in sports schools are low. It is necessary to pay more attention to the components of entrepreneurship in the planning and implementation of educational programs in schools so that physical education students with an entrepreneurial educational approach can graduate as an entrepreneur in the field of sports business.
