This exciting new course is being offered through the Peter Jones Enterprise Academy (PJEA) - the UK’s first non-profit educational institution dedicated to teaching enterprise and entrepreneurship.

Unlike more traditional business courses, you will develop your own ideas and could transform them into a successful business. You'll also achieve a recognised qualification. 

• learn from tutors with real business experience
• go on a work placement tailored to your specific interests
• attend master classes led by entrepreneurs and business leaders
• work on real life business challenges

Wendy Funnell, Head of Highbury's Centre for Entrepreneurship, is overseeing the College's partnership with PJEA.

"This is a great opportunity for young people. By the time they finish the course will have what it takes to thrive in the business world. They will have initiative, the ability to make things happen, a network of contacts and an understanding of how to build and run a successful business. This will put them way ahead of their peers."
