This project will develop a new training model to enable self-employed owner-operators to hire their first employee with knowledge, ability and confidence. This requires teaching the practical, legal and financial aspects of employment and sustainable business growth, but also applying new insights into overcoming the psychological barriers and risks involved.

Our online community, learning resources and training events will connect you to expert knowledge and advice. Ready to get started? The first step is to join on our online social media community of entrepreneurs, lecturers, business advisors and education providers.
