At IVC we believe that education is about real skills. A recent report from CEDEFOP, which is the European Centre for the Development of Vocational Training stated that, vocational education is more successful "at getting individuals into work in the short and medium terms". Our Diploma in Enterprise and Entrepreneurship students are all satisfied with the career choices they have made.

Furthermore, the more workplace content in the education, particularly when combined with previous work experience, the better the labour market outcomes. This statement is confirmed by analysis of the transition from education to the labour market. Our graduates  (VET graduates) find employment fasted than general education graduates. The transition is smoother and it gives access to permanent full-time jobs to students, which is so essential at this early stage of their careers.

Blue Whitney, above... was one of our IVC students, who is now doing a great job which gives her both the financial rewards and personal ones.

What does it mean working as an Intrapreneur?

 — building a new businesses inside established companies... how can we help employees to do that?
Most companies, when hoping to improve innovation, focus on generating ideas. Managers obsess over the front end of the innovation process. But the real leverage is in the back end—in execution, in Intrapreneurship.

Here are the 10 commandments of Intrapreneurs:

1.Come to work each day willing to be fired.
2.Circumvent any orders aimed at stopping your dream.
3. Do any job needed to make your project work
4. Find people to help you
5. Follow your intuition about the people you choose, and work only with the best.
6. Work as long as you can.
7. Never bet on a race unless you are running in it.
8. Remember it is easier to ask for forgiveness than for permission.
9. Be true to your goals, but be realistic about the wasy to achieve them
10.Honour your sponsors.

Companies which are willing to let their employees be Intrapreneurial, will see new businesses develop within their established ones, allowing for growth.
