Course introduction

It is no longer possible to apply/enrol for this course as there are no course dates available. Please check back later as we may be offering it again in the future.

This course is perfect if you want an introduction to the main principles of enterprise. You will research local enterprising people or entrepreneurs and identify your own enterprise skills and areas for growth. You can then apply these skills by taking part in a brief enterprise activity.  

You will develop an awareness of your own enterprise skills, as well as those of others, in order to progress to higher level of learning and eventual employment. You will be able to utilise your enterprise skills in a short enterprising activity and build an awareness of the enterprise skills already possessed in order to be enterprising within education, life and work.

To be awarded the Entry Level Award in Developing Enterprise Skills (Entry 3) you will need to successfully complete 2 mandatory units: 

  • Unit 01: Introduction to enterprise skills (3 credits)
  • Unit 02: Participate in an enterprise activity (3 credits) 

You can expect an experienced teacher to teach relevant business skills to explore ways of developing a business from scratch. You will work individually or in groups or pairs and research businesses and understand what makes a successful business. You will learn business terminology and develop effective communication skills. The skills developed are useful in the business environment.
