Notice Title

Entrepreneurial Training 2022/2023

Notice Description

The following quotation is to provide entrepreneurial training in terms of an intensive short-term introduction to business course which is accessible to participants. It would begin by a series of marketing and promotion of the business course helping to recruit participants or pre-start-up business clients as attendees. A launch event will form part of the training activity to induct attendees and to promote how Sandwell is supporting it's Start Up Businesses - "Sandwell Home of the Successful Start Up". The course should offer two weeks of informal business focussed training, with the aim of increasing Sandwell participants awareness of entrepreneurship, and enterprise skills. We would expect training provision to take place in person for the most part, but we are mindful that a back-up option for online delivery may be necessary if there are public health grounds to do so (for example a spike in the rate of covid 19). The courses are to be based in Sandwell.
