Social enterprise is not just an entity, or a “thing” – social enterprise is a verb! This webinar series will explore how social enterprise can be used as a tool by career practitioners and employment agencies to create social value through employment opportunities that contribute to healthy communities.    

Take a journey across social enterprise examples of how they sell a full range of goods and services in the marketplace, how they achieve a spectrum of social, cultural or environmental purpose, and why they reinvest most of their profits into their social mission.  

Test your ideas or strengthen your capacity. You will learn to assess and apply the social enterprise business plan of 5 Ms: mission, market, money, manage and measure.
