Join this interactive session to explore the real impact of extra-curricular enterprise and entrepreneurship education through the lens of Influencers—educators who build powerful, collaborative relationships with learners, colleagues, and stakeholders and Academics- educators who plan and deliver effective enterprise /entrepreneurship curricula. Together, we’ll test and shape a new framework for assessing impact, with your feedback helping to strengthen and enhance extra-curricular programmes for the future.
Led by Dr Emily Beaumont, this session forms part of a research project capturing diverse stakeholder perspectives on impact. The focus group will be audio recorded (video only with consent), and all contributions will be anonymised. Participation is voluntary, and you’re free to withdraw at any stage up to two weeks after the group.
Your voice will play a vital role in creating a framework that ensures the sustainability and recognition of extra-curricular enterprise and entrepreneurship education. This study has been reviewed and approved by the University of Gloucestershire Research Ethics Committee.
