The Student Enterprise Programme

The Student Enterprise Programme, an initiative run by the Network of Local Enterprise Offices of Ireland, is Ireland’s largest and most successful student enterprise programme with over 26,000 second level students taking part each year.

Students from 1st year to 6th year get to set up and run their own business and find out what it’s really like to be an entrepreneur by taking part in this 8 month long enterprise education learning programme.

The Programme runs from September to May, and students get to do everything a real life entrepreneur would do from coming up with the business idea to marketing, sales and preparing a business plan.

At the end of the Programme in May, one student business from each region gets to compete at the National Final for the ‘Student Enterprise of the Year’ award.

@Charlotte_Shev @CareersPortal @SusanHayes_ @StudentEntProg @PdstTy @breffniconaty @RossHorgan The wording on the document said to send immediately after the completion date of March 12th. Some schools may not be near a post office etc. The word 'after' is important.

Students! Your entrepreneurial journey may last longer than the #StudentEnterprise competition. Realising the potential of your business idea could take you beyond our programme. Some of our past participants have continued their business journey successfully to the wider world!
