| NEW - The Whole School Programme: Involve as many students as you like from as many year groups as you like. "One School - One Project" truly embeds a real Enterprise activity into the school culture. "Embedding Enterprise" summarises how you can get started on this journey. |
The Enterprise Day Programme runs during a collapsed timetable, typically seen when you hold an "Enterprise Day". A great way to launch your LocalBiz Community website! Involve local business people, and create in a day a website to last a lifetime. Brilliant with teams comprising different year groups. Ideal for Enterprise Week.

| NEW - The Primary School Programme: 10 hours (min) as an extra-curricula activity, introducing Community and Enterprise to Key Stage 2. Can be run as a linked secondary/feeder school activity. |
| The ICT Programme takes 15 to 20 hours, and could be completed in a single term at 2 hours per week. The ICT Key Skill qualification has an examination, and an optional portfolio of evidence. The full accredited qualification is also worth a points-equivalence of ¾ GCSE (and 10 UCAS points at level 2). This programme provides the practical experience which helps to reinforce the knowledge required for the examination, and - as with Teamwork - the workbook provides the portfolio of evidence to gain the full qualification. |
The Teamwork Programme takes between 20 and 30 hours, and can therefore be completed in an academic year at only 1 hour per week. It generates the evidence required for the "Working With Others" Key Skill, worth points equivalent to ¾ GCSE
(and 10 UCAS points at level 2). This accredited qualification can be obtained from all of the major examination boards, and is non-examinable. Students must demonstrate through a portfolio of work that they have both the required knowledge for working with other people, and the ability to put that knowledge into practice. The student workbook which accompanies this programme is designed to provide that evidence.

ASDAN, EDEXCEL, and OCR "consider that the Teamwork Programme can provide a suitable route to achieving Working with Others both at Level 1 and at Level 2." |

| Customised Programmes - All of our programmes can be amended to bring in (or omit) particular learning outcomes, depending on what is required. This could be to cover the other Key Skill qualifications, specific requirements, or courses, such as DIDA and other Diplomas. It can also be linked to Work Experience. Contact us for further discussion on how The LocalBiz Project can benefit your students, your school, and the community it serves. |
| The Short Enterprise Programme takes between 8 to 12 hours to complete. It can be run in as a focused programme in as little as 3 days, or over a complete term, at one hour per week, perhaps as an extra-curricula activity. |
