The EEUK Fellowship Scheme

The EEUK Scheme

The EEUK Fellowship scheme has been established to recognise, value, and professionalise the wide range of roles that contribute to enterprise and entrepreneurship education across higher education, further education, and the wider enterprise ecosystem. It reflects EEUK's long-standing commitment to enabling excellence in acknowledged, inclusive, and impactful enterprise education practice.

The Fellowship is deliberately designed to be inclusive of diverse career pathways, recognising that enterprise education is delivered through academic, practitioner, and leadership roles, often in hybrid and evolving ways.

Fellowship Scheme Review

After 8 years of successful delivery the EEUK Fellowship Scheme has recently undergone a significant review. Full details of the revised fellowship scheme will be revealed during our launch webinar on the 9th June.

Fellowship Questions

Fellowships are open to educators, practitioners, and partners actively involved in enterprise and entrepreneurship education. Applicants should demonstrate sustained contribution to the field and a clear plan for sharing learning with the EEUK community.

Both individual members and colleagues from member organisations may apply when a round is open. Eligibility criteria for each cohort are published with the call for applications.

Most Fellowship programmes run for twelve months, with structured milestones for reflection, peer exchange, and dissemination. Exact timelines are confirmed in the offer letter for each cohort.

Fellows receive mentoring, peer networking, and opportunities to present work at EEUK events. Many cohorts also include a bursary contribution toward project costs or conference attendance.

Some Fellowship routes require organisational membership; others accept individual applicants. Check the current call guidance, or contact the team if you are unsure which route fits your situation.

Calls are typically announced in the EEUK newsletter and on the website ahead of each academic year. Subscribe to updates so you do not miss application windows.

Enterprise Education Questions

Enterprise education develops the knowledge, skills, and behaviours that help people create value — commercially, socially, or culturally. It spans curriculum design, extracurricular activity, and educator professional development.

No. Membership includes universities, FE providers, and a range of partner organisations. Our programmes and networks are designed to share practice across the full enterprise education ecosystem.

Member colleagues can join special interest groups, attend events such as IEEC, and contribute to collaborative projects. Organisation admins can invite staff via the member portal once your membership is active.

Yes. Members can access case studies, toolkits, and peer learning sessions focused on embedding enterprise in taught programmes. New resources are added throughout the membership year.

Submission & Payment Questions

Complete the organisation checkout on this website. You will provide organisation details, choose a membership duration, and select card or invoice payment. Applications are reviewed before access is granted.

At registration you can pay by card (Stripe) or request an invoice with a purchase order number. After approval, invoice settlements are reconciled against your order in our billing ledger.

Invoice requests create a pending order at checkout. Once your organisation is approved, a QuickBooks invoice is generated and a public download link is attached to your order record.

Contact the EEUK team with your order reference if a PO needs amending. We can update the order record and refresh the invoice where required.

Failed charges leave the application in a recoverable state. You can retry with an updated card, or switch to invoice payment by contacting the team with your application details.
