Determined to Succeed recommends that teachers must have the opportunity to participate in training and development in enterprise in education at least once every two years. But all teachers will gain from investing in continuing professional development (CPD) in enterprise in education throughout their careers.

CPD in enterprise in education will enhance your skills and knowledge, and your connections with the world beyond the classroom. It will enable you to support children and young people in developing their capacities as successful learners, confident individuals, responsible citizens and effective contributors.

Here you will find information about the relevant professional development available, including placements in business, conferences and courses, and open learning materials.
