LEGI has procured 9 sets of business games and materials to engage, inspire and develop skills and interest in enterprise in young people.

Currently 3 of these business games are available to use and details of them are listed below.

The business games are designed to link into schools' national curriculum around enterprise. There are solo activities, group activities, board games and computer games.

Teachers, youth group leaders and others may find them useful when thinking of enterprise related activities to undertake with young people.

MyChemist

MyChemist is a computer based simulation that allows students to simulate running their own chemist shop and undertake a wide range of activities, from making stock to basic market research and time management in a fun and informative way.

The Business Game

The Business Game places the user into a realistic business scenario where they develop and market a new product. It is online simulation, which uses a login password to access the games interface.

The game has been developed in line with the 'National Strategy for Enterprise for Education' to provide an excellent way of introducing enterprise to teenagers.

Progressive Educational Tools

The workbooks contain activities for delivery of 1 day workshops (which can be extended and delivered as workshops spanning a number of days – with extension materials). The workshops link directly into schools enterprise curriculum.
