Education

Educational programs, courses, and resources that build skills, capacities, and knowledge for individuals engaged in the social enterprise sector.

Actors in the education domain include:

  • Social Enterprises

    A social enterprise is a business that puts people and planet first. They trade like any other business, but exist specifically to make the world a better place. Social enterprises can adopt a range of legal structures, identities, and play multiple roles, across different domains, in the ecosystem.

  • Higher education institutions

    Universities and institutes that offer courses, research, and incubation programs related to social innovation, entrepreneurship, and enterprise.

  • Registered training organisations

    Vocational training entities that provide applied learning and skills development programs for social enterprise practitioners and stakeholders.

  • Capability builders

    Organisations that provide training, mentoring, and resources to help social entrepreneurs and social enterprises develop and grow. May include consulting firms, support agencies, and education providers.

  • Professional service providers

    Firms and consultants that offer specialised support to social enterprises, such as legal advice, accounting, marketing, and impact measurement.

  • Networked initiatives

    Collaborative projects and alliances that bring together multiple stakeholders around shared interests, learning inquiries, and to address specific social, environmental, or organisational challenges.

  • Innovation hubs

    Centres that foster creativity, collaboration, and experimentation to develop new social enterprise ideas and solutions.
