Congratulations to the University of Portsmouth Business School which has retained its Small Business Charter Award in recognition of its work to support students, small businesses and the local economy.
Portsmouth Business School has held the Small Business Charter (SBC) accreditation status since 2015 and is one of only 33 Business Schools in the UK and Ireland. Portsmouth is one of four business schools to have successfully completed their reassessment through the SBC’s virtual assessment process. It will now hold the SBC Award for a further five years.
The assessors were impressed by the environment created and the range of opportunities to stimulate and support student engagement with the Small and Medium Enterprise (SME) community. These include placements and consultancy projects offered through the Business and Law Clinics. The panel regarded Portsmouth Business School as a champion of engagement with SMEs.
