Every great business starts as a small seed of an idea. The ones that make it are those that understand their market and have strong strategies to grow and adapt. On this course, learning that knowledge from the beginning will get you ahead of the competition. Whether you’ve just started a business (or plan to), are working in a small start-up, or want to apply entrepreneurship principles to a career elsewhere, this course gives you the skills to maximise your chances of success. We’ll help you to develop your capabilities as an entrepreneur. You’ll explore the requirements of effective business planning and the vital role of marketing and logistics, learning how to critique entrepreneurship theory and gaining practical experience on a live project where you can begin trading.Your studies will include a research project, where you can choose to focus on either your own start-up or a market of interest. Every step of the way you’ll learn practical skills you can put to use in your own business. While the practical skills are vital, you’ll also learn about management systems and analyse organisations’ socio-political environments. By putting your work into context, we believe you’ll be a much more effective entrepreneur when you graduate.Topics like ethics and globalisation are relevant to any business.
