Social Enterprise Institute

Edinburgh Innovations gives you access to two resources from the Social Enterprise Institute, The World’s School for Social Enterprise:

  • Social Shifters: this e-learning and global community platform gives you access to hundreds of bite-sized videos, tools and competitions to help you start your own social impact project, campaign or business. 
  • Steps to Startup: an online social startup course that will help you explore, start and grow your ideas to tackle social and environmental issues. The course is designed by social business experts to help you with everything; from shaping your early idea and planning your social impact, to finding funding, growing your team and developing a business model. It’s split into eight foundational courses, each broken down into smaller modules. It’s designed for you to tackle one course a week over eight weeks, but you can go faster or take as long as you need.
