Get into Enterprise

This course is designed to raise the awareness of S5 and S6 pupils of the importance of enterprise and the skills of the entrepreneur.  Participants will undertake a project, which will involve setting up a business enterprise and developing their personal, social and interpersonal skills, as well as enhancing employability.

The course has been developed to allow for a balance of theory and a practical approach to activity that should enhance pupils’ abilities in planning, organising, setting goals, decision making and working as part of a group. Completion of the course will result in a pass for the SQA unit Enterprise Activity (Intermediate 2), level 5.
