The students compete in two groups - one is studying for their BTEC in business, and the other are wannabe accountants. Using ProfitAbility’s hands-on competitive and interactive board games each team will compete for market dominance and show how they can run a profitable business while maintaining all important cash flow.

Starting a business is one thing, expanding your range of contacts and
business opportunities is a different challenge. For small or micro businesses
this is all the more important because they are particularly vulnerable in their
early years.

One of the key issues facing people deciding to start a business is lack of
confidence. Doubts about when to make a start, if you’re ready and how to do it
are natural concerns but when combined with the challenge of finding new
customers/suppliers, talking to them and forging beneficial relationships, it all
doesn’t come naturally to a lot of people. Motivating yourself to keep the
momentum needed to establish your business is essential.
