Self-Employment Assistance

Many aspiring business owners understand their craft well but lack the essential business know-how to execute successfully. Business degrees don’t go far enough into praxis - where the rubber hits the road.

Enter APM who offer the Self-Employment Assistance program, an amazing well-kept secret formerly known as NEIS.

This fully funded program was extended to offer new business owners and struggling business owners the chance to:

• Set up / grow their business well (and legally)
• Accredited training in business management skills, and
• Receive 12 months mentoring.
• There is also a fortnightly S-EA Allowance for eligible participants...
• All at no cost to the recipient. 😍

APM ensures that those who wish to learn, and grow a business can do so, encouraging aspiring entrepreneurs to access the myriad of free / inexpensive resources currently available. This includes mentoring. As the proverb instructs,

“Without counsel plans fail, but with many advisers they succeed.”
