Level 1 Employability: Team Work Task Booklet - Create a Business Plan for a New Business Venture

This resource I have created is a seven page booklet which contains a team activity that has been used many times with adult learners. These learners were completing a Level 1 Employability Course with City and Guilds and had to complete a module named: ‘Working as Part of a Team.’ This booklet covers unit 4 and unit 6 of the team working module.

This group project gives learners a set of instructions to create a business plan that will be used to launch a new business venture. They are required to deliver this business plan in the form of a presentation, which they will used to show potential investors or clients of their services. The team will be required to plan everything from the company logo to advertising for staff members to join their firm.

Depending on the ability of your learners this task usually takes between 3- 6 hours to complete before the learners deliver their presentation.

All instructions for this task are in the booklet, as well as task sheets that will enable them to complete this task and also to reflect on the
work they have completed.

This activity has also been used with KS3 learners recently with great success.
