University's co-op school

Sheffield Hallam University is running Cooperative and Social Enterprise Summer Schools in June and July to help participants develop knowledge about the rationale, purposes and practices of cooperative and social enterprises.

The summer school is the forerunner for a new series of short courses about running social enterprises, run by Sheffield Business School.

Dr Rory Ridley-Duff, senior lecturer at Sheffield Business School and summer school leader, said: "Leaders in the public, private and third sectors are exploring social enterprise ideas and concepts and developing ways to meet the social and environmental responsibilities they face.

"Courses that explore cooperative working and business democracy are still a rarity in higher education and are highly recommended for individuals and businesses looking to understand the political changes and business opportunities that lie ahead."

To find out more about the summer schools, which take place on June 29 and 30 and July 20 and 21, call Deborah Hunton on 0114 225 3707.
