OUR FOCUS
"I wish I had
that when I
was in school".
When we describe what it is that we do at This is Creative Enterprise, the response we always get is, “I wish I’d had that when I was at school”... so, what do we do? We work with businesses, schools, colleges and universities to give young people a taste of the opportunities that exist within the commercial creative, design and digital industries.
We’re an organisation that gets to work with incredible students making remarkable achievements. It's creativity in action. Our students have remarkable opportunities and resources helping them hone their skills, discover their passions and develop real-world creative industry know-how.
WHAT WE DO
Giving real-world insight into the creative, design and digital industries...
We introduce students to current industry trends, perspectives and emerging opportunities by giving the young people we work with the chance to explore in full the scope of the careers that exist within the commercial creative sectors. We work to provide students with real-time, hands-on access to what's happening in the world today - so they can think about where they might see themselves in the future.

In doing this, students gain access to industry professionals who showcase how they do their jobs through challenges and tasks supported by brands worldwide.
