A pioneering South Australian program to boost business skills for social entrepreneurs, The Social Enterprise Workshop, aims to launch itself throughout Australia during the next two years.
In an environment of increasing social need and limited government funding, innovative thinking that leads to the creation of new social enterprises, is the future direction for the not for profit sector.
The August launch of The Social Enterprise Workshop (TSEW) will make a significant contribution to the development of the skills needed by not for profit organisations to turn their good ideas into successful social enterprises.
The TSEW is a variation of the highly successful SA Enterprise Workshop modified for the not for profit sector. The SA Enterprise Workshop, since its inception in the 1980s has created many entrepreneurs with the program being the foundation for many of South Australia’s small, medium and indeed some large enterprises. Acknowledged as an extremely successful initiative, companies formed by graduates of the SA Enterprise Workshop have generated more than four per cent of the State’s GDP.

The Willunga High Speed Broadband Business Implementation Program – subtitled Connecting your Business with the World – comprises nine modules over three half-day workshop sessions. The program covers topics selected to provide Willunga business people with a step?by?step business / marketing / online development program designed to generate increased sales, profits and brand building.
