Specifically, the study assessed the influence e-learning and blended learning on creativity and self-employment among 370 undergraduates drawn from 4,993 final year students of 2021/2022 academic session from all the faculties in University of Calabar and Cross River University of Technology respectively. The study adopted correlational research design. To guide the study, two null hypotheses were developed. A structured questionnaire titled: “Managing Entrepreneurship Education and Undergraduates’ Job Creation Propensity Questionnaire (MEEUJCPQ)”, was designed and used for data collection. Multiple Linear Regression Analysis was used to statistically examine the collected data. Results from testing of the hypotheses revealed that managing entrepreneurship education in terms of e-learning and blended learning has a significant effect on both undergraduates' creativity and self-employment. Based on the study's findings, we assert that managing entrepreneurship education through e-learning and blended learning, individually and collectively, predicts undergraduates' propensity to create job by exuding creativity and self-employment characteristics.</p>2023-08-23T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2023 https://www.ajol.info/index.php/gjedr/article/view/253393Strike and educational activities planning in nigerian universities: impact and possible solution for today and beyond2023-08-23T02:08:42+00:00Ogban Ogban Nkanuglobaljournalseries@gmail.comOffem Odim Otuglobaljournalseries@gmail.comInung Sunday Utu Bakuglobaljournalseries@gmail.com<p>Education is a tool for any meaningful development of any society.
