Summary/Abstract: The aim of the article is to synthetize and compare education on family entrepreneurship. It also analyzes the experience from abroad and Poland. This article presents closely the development of family business training and education. The article refers to three basic family business education models: 1) the demand-driven model, 2) the research model and 3) the holistic model. Some representatives of these models were provided. The Family Firm Institute data was used to quantify educational centers and draw conclusions. The data proved that the research model implemented at universities is dominant. Finally, the experiences from Poland in meeting family business educational needs were addressed and developed by the Polish Agency for Enterprise Development under two projects.
