The Young Enterprise Scotland Company Programme is an immersive enterprise experience which runs over an academic year for S5 and S6 students. Young people learn by doing as they set up a real business, assign leadership roles, brainstorm product and service ideas and launch onto the market. Students have access to an optional SCQF Level 6 Qualification in partnership with Glasgow Kelvin College and a reflective exam provided by Strathclyde Business School.

The Team Programme runs in the same format has been designed and delivered for students over the age of 15 who have mild to moderate additional support needs. We focus on ensuring students develop transferable enterprise skills that they can build on through their next phase after high school. Students are encouraged to complete the optional SCQF Level 3 qualification as part of the programme.

These programmes can be run as an extracurricular group afterschool or at lunchtimes, as an option on the school timetable or could run as short-term as 12-weeks, so could make up a project for a semester. The programmes link with the real world of work by matching each Company and Team with a local Business Mentor.
