The government wants to empower educators to embed enterprise in their teaching and, through better coordination and consistency, ensure that all young people are able to access enterprise-related programmes. This ranges from primary, secondary, further and higher education. The aim of this session is to Showcase Entrepreneurial Pedagogy and Interactive Techniques, This the second in a series of three events made possible with funding from the Higher Education Funding Council for England (HEFCE) and can form part of a full day workshop (together with workshop 1) or be accessed as a stand-alone event which explores entrepreneurial teaching techniques.

We are running three events, which this is the second.
