PLUS these workshops allow you to earn Digital Badges! Sign up for a minimum of 2 workshops of your choice - there is no maximum number so you can participate in as many as you like! Plus carers or support workers can also attend the workshops and earn digital badges!
Belfast is one of the newest Cities of Learning to provide digital badging! Digital Badges give employers and support organisations an innovative, simple, and visual way of recognising non-accredited learning, helping to recruit and promote employee skills and achievements.
Though the badges are not formal qualifications, all Badges are endorsed by City & Guilds, and allow individuals to participate in personal and professional development workshops whilst adding to their CV's and demonstrating commitment to their continued skills development. The badges can be shared through a range of social media channels, on CVs, or by messenger.

These free pre-enterprise, early stage enterprise and personal development workshops are for people who are historically under-represented, under-supported and under-funded in Entrepreneurship.
The aim is to raise entrepreneurial aspirations for people who may not have previously considered Enterprise as a viable career pathway, people who would like to or are considering working for themselves or people who may have a very early stage business idea and don't know where to go for support.
