Course Overview

Starting a business isn’t without its challenges. From the first time you think of an idea to your first sale, learning how to overcome these hurdles is essential if you want your business to succeed.

Unfortunately, many entrepreneurs don’t realise they lack the necessary business skills until it is too late. Research shows that around 20 per cent of new businesses in the UK will fail within their first year. Developing the right skills from the outset can help your business beat these statistics.

The Award in Developing Enterprise Skills gives you the opportunity to explore self-employment and develop an idea to see if it is the right thing for you.

The Award in Developing Enterprise Skills Course is delivered in various locations around the Tees Valley area. Participants will be working toward achieving an NCFE Level 1 Award in Developing Enterprise Skills and an NCFE Level 1 Award in Managing Your Money.
