NCFE Level 1 Award in Developing Enterprise Skills.
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.
Participants will be working toward achieving an NCFE Level 1 Award in Developing Enterprise Skills.
Our Award in Developing Enterprise Skills Course is designed to help you develop the skills needed to launch a successful business. This 5-day business course will cover everything you need to know to set business goals and implement solutions to remove any barriers you may face.
Our experienced trainers will show you how to develop a budget and find and consider practical funding sources for your business. We will examine how cash flow impacts your budget and success. Finally, you’ll develop your sales skills, learn new techniques, and learn how to implement them within your own business.
This course is ideal for individuals who are self-employed or those struggling to find employment and looking to improve their business skills to make them more marketable to employers.
