About the programme
COMPASS: Emerging Maker Programme 2025 takes a practical approach to nurturing a creative business through the early stages of development. The programme is due to start in March 2025.
The programme is delivered through a combination of online workshops, an immersive five-day residential, one-to-one sessions, specialist advice, peer learning, work critiques and mentoring. All participants will work with a mentor at the end of the programme. You will also be provided with resources to enhance your learning experience.
We have up to eight places available for a cohort of makers working supportively together through the programme. Participants will learn about finance, marketing, branding, selling effectively, developing resilience and a wide range of invaluable creative development skills.
