Social return on investment - innovating within enterprise and entrepreneurship

First与政府、教育和社区组织合作，提供包容性的终身学习体验。作为一家学习和发展机构，我们认可的课程、研讨会和活动增强了技能、自信、自信和动力，为学习者提供了进入体面工作、继续教育或创业的公平机会。促进包容性的经济增长，首先是通过创新和提高企业和创业企业内部入门级教学和学习的质量来挑战现状。去年，我们的工作为东北经济贡献了约1600万社会投资回报，同时改善了英国资源最匮乏社区547名学习者的生活质量。值得注意的项目包括创业奖东北和企业技能一级资质。对于这个项目，首先将与企业技能/经济领域的顶尖专家合作，开发一套指标，帮助捕捉企业技能和创业的真正经济和社会价值。然后，将共享学习资源，以便跨行业组织可以证明和监控其社会投资回报，以了解与创业和企业技能相关的影响。成功与否将通过与公司增长、利益相关者采用新指标以及由此在教育系统内发生的变化相关的KPI来衡量。

FIRST provides inclusive, lifelong learning experiences in collaboration with government, education and community organisations. As a learning and development agency, our accredited courses, workshops and events empower skills, confidence, self-belief and motivation, giving learners equitable opportunities to progress into decent work, further education or business startup. Facilitating inclusive, economic growth, FIRST challenges the status quo by innovating and improving the quality of entry level teaching and learning within enterprise and entrepreneurship.Last year our work contributed approximately 16 million in social return on investment for the North East economy whilst improving the quality of life for 547 learners in the most under-resourced communities in the UK. Notable projects include Startup Awards North East and level 1 qualifications in enterprise skills.For this project, FIRST will work alongside leading experts within enterprise skills/the economy to develop a set of indicators which assist in capturing the true economic and social value of enterprise skills and entrepreneurship. Learning resources will then be shared so that cross sector organisations can evidence and monitor their social return on investment for impact relating to entrepreneurship and enterprise skills.Success will be measured with KPIs associated with company growth, adoption of the new indicators by stakeholders and the change that occurs within education systems as a result.
