Students at Croydon College have taken part in a series of programmes with EiA with a broader aim to become more entrepreneurial by making the most of their opportunities, whether financial, academic or business based.

 The Entrepreneur in You! programme paved the way for a journey of self-discovery, helping draw out undiscovered talent and how it could best be used to find success. Everyone took something positive away from the experience, from discovering an unknown ability to bargain by way of trading exercises, to finding the confidence to present ideas to others at the front of their class. 

The Raising the Game programme challenged students to plan for success and develop the mindset with which to achieve these goals. The ability of the EiA coaches to inspire and motivate students to reach their potential resulted in a highly interactive day, where the confidence was found to address ambitions and consider how to seize opportunities in front of them.

The Money in Your Pocket programme encouraged students to think about financial planning, both in personal and business spheres. EiA coaches prompted students to their own realisation that using budgeting, negotiation and business skills could have significant financial benefits.

The combination of programmes highlighted to students how they can achieve their full potential with the right mentality. In the words of one Croydon College student, the combination of programmes "gave me a destination."
