I was selected from over 60 students to take an Entrepreneurial Skills Development module at the University of Northampton worth 20 credits at HE Level 4 during sixth form and achieved a (B+). This experience enhanced my team working and presentation skills due to the requirement to develop business ideas during seminar sessions. As part of the module it was required for us to develop a Business proposal which in turn required me to become more innovative and creative.
