This course will help you recognise and develop your enterprise skills. You will learn a range of skills associated with running a small business and develop your own capabilities through planning, implementation and evaluation of project work. You will set up and run a business of your own; from raising money, selling shares to making a product/providing a service, to winding up the business and sharing the profits out amongst shareholders. You'll be helped through the course by a Link Teacher and Advisor from the world of business. In the past, many companies have won awards and made respectable profits from their enterprises. If your business really is a success, then you can continue beyond the program date.
