Overview

Delivered over two weeks, the Young Entrepreneur programme combines 30 hours of business-focused tuition, including an entrepreneurial project, with 30 hours of Work Experience or General English. The course aims to give students a better understanding of what it takes to run a successful enterprise while improving their English language skills and becoming familiar with the culture of British business.

Key issues, including branding, marketing and advertising are explored in a carefully designed programme. During the length of the course, students' new-found knowledge will be put into practice by executing an entrepreneurial project that will help them explore the challenges behind creating and running a business.

This course is available to closed groups only.

We also have a number of measures in place to make sure our students are safe and happy during their time with us. For those under 18 we also provide further care and support, please visit our Care and Support page for more information.
