Erasmus for Young Entrepreneurs is a programme that helps aspiring and new entrepreneurs gain skills on establishing and managing a company by working with an experienced entrepreneur in another European country. New entrepeneurs stay from 1 to 6 months with an experienced entrepreneur, with whom they exchange business ideas and experiences. The stay is partly funded by the European Commusuon.

3 Question Model |
Academic qualifications and technical skills are fundamental to economic independence – however if economic independence is to be sustainable and deep rooted these need to be set in a context of practicality, adaptability and application. This is why we have developed and delivered QEAS. QEAS is about enabling – evolving the confidence, decision making, communication, problem solving, team work, resilience and business awareness of employees, entrepreneurs, leaders, young people, communities, civic structures and organisations.

In helping an individual or group with building start-up businesses, we demystify the conventional business model into three very simple questions. By doing this, we focus on the realities of business rather than the theory and drill down on the key point – as a business, will you provide what people will buy?

Based on our own experience and methodology of starting and growing businesses, we provide micro-investment, coaching, network support and office services to over 40 companies, nearly half of which are working in mainland Europe. Giving a pro-active, business-wise approach, we actively support new entrepreneurs, the self-employed, and businesses who wish to thrive and sustain the local community, meet local need and deploy local talent.

Be Your Own Boss |

BYOB is a methodology which embeds QEAS into self-employment, new businesses and spin-off businesses. QEAS can only be obtained through practical experience and BYOB is a direct engagement programme of five pathways which enables economic independence. BYOB begins with an Initial Individual Audit, moves through to bespoke coaching of a business or entrepreneur and offers support into the sustainability stage of a business.

QualiTools
|
Over the years we have listened to so many talented people – from Chile to Slovakia, from Lithuania to Iraq and many countries in between. A constant question and request has been for a practical English language course, written and verbal, which focuses on employment, enterprise and business. So in response we have developed a programme of scenario based English language development, to provide the core aspects of vocabulary, pronunciation and etiquette for conducting business, entrepreneurship and leadership in the English language. This is then followed by individually designed modules to meet individual and collective needs of the entrepreneurs, business people and students.

Qualitools is an Erasmus+ project that will seek to enhance the professional development of VET teachers and trainers by strengthening their skills in:
- adapting training to learners needs;
- reflecting on the quality of training processes;
- evaluating outcomes & transfer; and
- improving their own practice accordingly.
A handbook is being produced to provide 60 quality assurance tools for trainers so that the training quality itself will be better in the future. The quality tools that are being developed will be assessed and adapted for the ICT sector but they will be easily transferable to other training sectors.
