Course summary

The Company Programme provides a real-life learning opportunity that will introduce you to the realities of the world of work. As part of a team you set up and run your own student company. You will make all the decisions about your business, from deciding on the company name and product to managing the company finances. You will sell to the public with pop up shops at YE Trade Fairs and on YE MarketPlace, the dedicated online sales platform. You will gain the practical business experience, adaptability, entrepreneurial mindset and employability skills needed to secure successful futures. Step by step guidance is available online with videos and resources to support students to run their student company. All this takes place with the support of a Volunteer Business Advisor who facilitates the programme and brings a wealth of business knowledge and expertise. Student companies can take part in local competitions and the opportunity to battle it out to be crowned UK YE Company of the Year and to go on to the European Company Programme Final. Taking part in Young Enterprise will increase your confidence and provide you with an opportunity for practical know-how of the business world. Universities and employers highly value the skills and opportunities offered by the Young Enterprise programme.
