The Government has launched a new online training course filled with practical advice and resources for small business leaders.
Help to Grow: Management Essentials is a free short course which is suited for leaders of newer or smaller SMEs.
It suits those who are looking to explore the principles of business growth and management before taking the next step and enrolling in the existing fuller version of the course entitled Help to Grow: Management.
The two courses form a Help to Grow toolkit supporting UK small businesses to scale up and grow.
The new short course is aimed at supporting SME leaders to establish their roots as they look towards future expansion.
The Help to Grow site makes it quicker and easier for business owners to find the resources they need for every step of their growth journey.
Small Business Minister Kevin Hollinrake said: “I’ve met so many business owners who have benefited from Help to Grow: Management, and now with the launch of Help to Grow: Management Essentials even more business people will be able to access the advice and resources they need to scale up and grow.
“2024 is the year of the SME and whether it’s through access to finance, support and advice, or removing barriers to growth: we’re helping them go further than ever before.”
Help to Grow: Management Essentials is divided into three easy-to-access modules consisting of short videos and supporting resources covering the essential business concepts required to unlock growth. Business leaders can access the course through the website here.
