Employment skills specialists, SAMEE, have designed an Institute of Enterprise and Entrepreneurs (IOEE) accredited session which covers the basics of self-employment. Through a range of interactive tasks and creative activities, young people will be able to discuss and explore the opportunities that self-employment offers and be better prepared for the ever-increasing gig economy.

The day looks at self-employed roles such as dog walkers, construction workers and beauty therapists and explores the basics of setting up as a sole trader, structuring your time, defining your price and test marketing. The activities are interactive and meaningful giving the young people clear guidance as to what being self employed actually means. We also explore the other job roles they will have to undertake by being self-employed such as bookkeeping, invoicing and social media.
