Skills for Work: Enterprise Venture
Mae disgrifiad y cymhwyster yn Saesneg yn unig, gan ei fod wedi ei gymryd o fanyleb Saesneg CBAC.
Enterprise venture is a 20 hour Skills for Work unit, from Entry 1 to Level 2, in which learners generate ideas for a product or service, plan and present one, run it for real and evaluate it. It is one unit that learners combine with other 10 or 20 hour units into a Skills for Work, or Skills for Life and Work, Award, Certificate or Diploma. Literacy runs through every outcome: discussing ideas, writing a plan, pitching, keeping a log and evaluating. Numeracy sits in setting and justifying a price, which the plan requires, and in budgets, sales records and simple market research data.

Pitching the idea to an audience
Learners show their idea to another person at Entry 1 and describe it at Entry 3; at Level 1 they present the idea and key enterprise factors using a planned method, and at Level 2 they do so clearly and effectively. The presentation is required; tailoring it to the audience and handling questions are suggested strategies in the amplification.

Da gwybod
- The unit codes are S656E1, S656E2, S656E3, S656L1 and S656L2, and the unit is 20 guided learning hours in the Skills for Work suite (Unit overview, page 3).
- Learners must actually run something: "To achieve this unit, learners must take part in an enterprise activity." (Unit overview, page 3).
- Spelling and presentation are not judged: "Assessor judgements should focus on the meeting of standards, not on spelling or presentation unless specifically assessed." (Sources of evidence, page 14), and "extended written work is not required unless appropriate" (page 14).
- Evidence can be spoken or recorded as well as written: "Reflection journals: written, audio, or video reflections" and "Pitch presentations" are listed (Sources of evidence, page 14).
- If not specified, "a plural reference within assessment criterion refers to a minimum of two" (pages 6 and 8).
- Suggested assessment tasks are optional: "These tasks are not mandatory." (Skills for Life and Work specification, section 4.1, page 18).
- AI use must be acknowledged. Properly referenced AI use "can be acceptable", but "Using AI to complete parts of the assessment so that the work does not reflect the learner's own work, analysis, evaluation or calculations" is malpractice (Skills for Life and Work specification, section 4.6, page 21).
- The pack names "Numeracy (budgeting, costs, pricing)" as a cross-curricular link (Unit overview, page 4), and Appendix A of the specification maps the unit to Literacy, Numeracy, Digital Competence and Creativity and innovation (page 29).
