The investigation examined entrepreneurship education, individual or personal characteristics and new venture creation of Youth Corp members in Rivers State. The specific objective was to determine if individual or personal characteristics affect the relationship between entrepreneurship education and new venture creation among 2020 Batch B Youth Corp members serving in Port Harcourt and Obio/ Akpor Local Government Areas of Rivers State. The study adopted course curriculum, teaching methods, knowledge of lecturers and student's perception on entrepreneurship education as dimensions of entrepreneurship education, while entrepreneurial intention, identification of business ideas, discovery of business opportunity and implementation of opportunity were used as measures of new venture creation. The study was hypothesis testing, and the type of investigation was correlational study, while the setting was non contrived, using cross sectional survey. The primary data was obtained with the aid of structured questionnaire administered to a sample of 278 Youth Corp members out of a total of 980. The Pearson Product - Moment Correlation Coefficient was used to determine how individual characteristics moderated the relationship between entrepreneurship education and new venture creation with the aid of the Statistical Package for Social Sciences, SPSS, 20.0 edition. The analysis showed that individual characteristics have low moderating effect on the relationship between entrepreneurship education and new venture creation. We thus concluded that differences among participants in an entrepreneurship education programme affect their entrepreneurial decisions and outcomes. The study therefore recommended that course curriculum, teaching methods and all entrepreneurship education programmes take into consideration the differences in the characteristics of participants with a view to coming out with an appropriate strategy that will promote a common understanding on what venturing is, and how to start and run a new business successfully
