Nelson (2005) asserts that safety training can occur only when management and employeesare taught how certain tasks must be accomplished in order to prevent injury, including specifictraining on how to develop an adequate work-execution and pre-task safety plan [18].Typically, construction companies faced several challenges associated with safety training thatthey need to be overcome. For instance, the extent to which workers' learning experiences areaffected in safety training sessions and the extent to which workers learn safe practices intraining sessions is among these challenges [6].

. Entrepreneurship education has evolved since it was first taught in business schools in themid-1940s. As it continues to be incorporated across disciplines, entrepreneurship education hasseen a number of innovations and has benefited from advances in student learning6.Entrepreneurship education has expanded well beyond single business plan classes. Recently,engineering colleges have been the most aggressive at incorporating entrepreneurship at differentlevels, from individual course development, certificate creation, to program development3,4,7. In2010, over 50% of ASEE engineering programs offered entrepreneurship opportunities to theirstudents and approximately 25% had a more structured opportunity, such as a minor7.

In a case-based module, students identify solutions to grey-watersystems that do not meet current local codes. Course modules were developed with an advisorycommittee including building code officials, architects, construction managers, disastermitigation experts, and academic faculty. Advisory members anonymously submitted feedbackfor each module. Feedback was compiled, discussed and course content edited. This review-discuss-edit process was repeated until a final version was agreed upon with the advisorycommittee. The course and content is a free resource for educators.
