Abstract: Entrepreneurs need to transform creative ideas into entrepreneurial actions through continuous learning. In recent years, entrepreneurial learning theory has shown its strong explanatory power to entrepreneurial behavior. Therefore, entrepreneurial learning has become a hot topic in entrepreneurial research. This paper first reviews the definition of entrepreneurial learning and on this basis combs the articles on entrepreneurial learning published in international first-class journals in the field of entrepreneurship in the past three years. It is found that the topics of these studies can be roughly divided into five categories: entrepreneurial learning and entrepreneurial strategies, subjects of entrepreneurial learning, level of entrepreneurial learning, situations of entrepreneurial learning and entrepreneurial learning process. Based on the review of recent research, this paper sorts out the directions for future entrepreneurial learning research, including team entrepreneurial learning, longitudinal research design and deepening situational characteristics.

Key words: Entrepreneurial learning, Hot topics, Future direction
