Scottish Entrepreneurial Educators Network (SEEN)

Empowering every educator in Scotland to embed entrepreneurial thinking into learning.

Join the Network
Scottish Entrepreneurial Educators Network (SEEN)
SEEN is a growing community of educators, champions, and change agents from across Scotland’s Universities and Colleges. Together, we’re working to make entrepreneurial education (EE) accessible to all students — in all disciplines — by helping institutions implement Theme IV (Curriculum) of the Scottish Government’s Entrepreneurial Campus Blueprint (ECB).
We believe entrepreneurial education enhances employability, innovation, and personal empowerment, equipping graduates with the creativity, resilience, and problem-solving skills needed to shape Scotland’s future.
“Entrepreneurial Education isn’t just about starting businesses — it’s about enabling every learner to spot opportunities, create value, and make a difference.”
A National Network for Entrepreneurial Educators
SEEN (Scottish Entrepreneurial Educators Network) connects and supports educators who want to embed entrepreneurial mindsets and methods into teaching and learning at every level of Scotland’s tertiary education system.
We’re led by Edinburgh Napier University and the University of the Highlands and Islands (UHI) under the guidance of the Entrepreneurial Campus Blueprint (ECB) Curriculum Working Group.
Our mission is to:

Build a coalition of the willing across universities and colleges
Share and co-create teaching resources and learning artefacts
Enhance educator capability and confidence in entrepreneurship education
Showcase Scotland’s best practice nationally and internationally
This is a multi-year change project — our first phase runs through March 2026, supported by the Scottish Government through the Ecosystem Fund.
Why Entrepreneurial Education Matters
Entrepreneurial Education (EE) develops the competencies identified by the QAA (2018) and EntreComp Framework, such as:
Creative thinking and problem-solving
Curiosity, empathy, and adaptability
Collaboration and communication

Opportunity recognition and value creation

Self-leadership, initiative, and resilience
EE is not limited to business modules — it applies to any discipline that uses experiential learning, ambiguity, and collaboration with real-world stakeholders. Embedding EE in every subject helps students:
Develop confidence and employability skills
Apply their knowledge to real-world challenges
Contribute to Scotland’s innovation and social wellbeing
What We're Doing
We’re turning vision into action through four key strands:

A. Network and Map Scotland’s Entrepreneurial Educators
We’re identifying change agents and champions at every institution, creating a database and national map of Scotland’s entrepreneurial education landscape.
B. Collate and Share Good Practice
We’re meeting with champions to gather existing frameworks, teaching materials, and learning artefacts, identifying what works and where the gaps are.
C. Commission New Open Educational Resources (OERs)
We’re funding the development of new, shareable digital teaching resources to support educators embedding entrepreneurship into their modules.
D. Disseminate and Celebrate
Through regional workshops, national webinars, and a National Showcase Event, we’ll share success stories, highlight best practice, and inspire further innovation.
Become Part of Scotland’s Entrepreneurial Education Movement
We’re inviting educators, administrators, and professional staff across all Scottish universities and colleges to join SEEN. Membership is free and open to anyone passionate about embedding entrepreneurship in learning.
