Have a great business idea but not sure where to start? Or build practical business, finance and marketing skills for your future career? This course will guide you through everything from developing a business plan to the basics of finance and building an effective website.
How does the course work?
It’s fully online, self-paced to fit around other commitments and can be started any time. Each week includes a short video and a practical (but theoretical!) task to take an hour.
