Join our focus group on the development of an innovative "Storytelling and Pitching for Start-up" training path for disadvantaged adult learners

 Are you:

• an entrepreneur,
• a trainer/teacher involved in entrepreneurial education,
• a vocational counsellor,
• an adult learner,
• a young business or
• working for a Chamber of Commerce / Job Centre / employment agency / business incubator?

We require your feedback for the design of an innovative training pathway for disadvantaged adult learners who are looking to start-up a business.

The focus group is part of a larger project (YouBrand) which will help disadvantaged adult learners move into self-employment. The final training materials will be freely accessible to anyone interested in using our methodology (given appropriate credentials are given!).  The aim of the study is to gather opinions on the methodology of YouBrand, its effectiveness, sustainable development and its adaptation to the public policies.

The methodology proposed by the YouBrand project aims to define a guided and homogeneous learning process that, through 6 steps (training modules), leads the aspiring startuppers towards the definition of their business idea, so that they can come to the market more aware and equipped to withstand the impact of external factors which can affect a new business.

If you are interested, we are inviting you to have a look at the YouBrand methodology draft below, and drop us an email at [email protected] to learn more about the time and location of the focus group. Altrnatively, you can ring us on 01902 837 416.
