Abstract: The paper examined the role of entrepreneurship education in sustainable economic development via the informal sector. Entrepreneurship education is a great force for any meaningful national development and individual survival in any economy. It is a part of the total educational system that involves the acquisition of skills, ideas and management abilities necessary for job creation. The paper concludes that effective entrepreneurship education and training could result to increased self employment in the informal sector, thereby leading to sustainable economic development Consequently, it is recommended among other things that attempts be made by both the government and entrepreneurship educators to improve the curriculum of entrepreneurship education by emphasizing skills that are tailored toward self-employment in the informal sector .
