The Sheffield Enterprise Events Company (SEEC)
Summary
It is proposed that a group of VM students organise and set up all-day interactive enterprise events for pupils from Sheffield Secondary Schools. We will involve Sheffield College student entrepreneurs with VM students to jointly organise the delivery of enterprise events. Typically, 3 invitations will be offered per secondary school across the city, per event, leading to a total of ~100 secondary students per event.
In essence, the project offers both internal and external opportunities. Internally, via the student led organisation of events to develop learner autonomy, mentoring (retention) and enterprise (employability). Externally, via the organisation and delivery of high profile enterprise events, to widen participation and ultimately boost recruitment.
