Purposeful sampling was used and sampling continued until theoretical saturation. The tools used were in-depth and open interviews. Data were analyzed using an analytical coding approach. Validity was determined through longitudinal and comprehensive negligence of the data source, and the coefficient of the agreement was obtained 83% in determining the coding reliability.Results: 49 sub-themes and 8 main themes were identified from the interviews. Key themes such as: understanding entrepreneurial areas in experimental conditions, academic structure, content, and quality of some courses, inter-institutional collaboration, teachers' knowledge, and attitude, title review and course content, course teaching transfer process, and enhance practical learning process as learning factors affecting entrepreneurial learning in colleges were identified.
