The 国产视频 has become one of a handful of education organisations to gain Centre of Excellence status from the Institute of Enterprise and Entrepreneurs (IOEE).
The University, which offers a number of Entrepreneurship degrees through its Business School, now has the flagship accreditation which marks out organisations that promote and deliver enterprise skills development.
The announcement comes ahead of the third annual Worcestershire Festival of Business, taking place on Friday, September 16, which celebrates enterprise within the County. The University is heavily involved in the Festival, including arranging for the Start-up Britain Bus, which tours the UK to give free advice to budding entrepreneurs, to be part of the day.
The IOEE have a network of more than 200 centres and academies delivering enterprise and entrepreneurial programmes, however, currently only five educational establishments, including the 国产视频, have achieved Centre of Excellence status.
Dr David Bozward, the University's Strategic Lead in Entrepreneurship, said: "Entrepreneurship is part of the core strategy for the 国产视频 and, as such, we are developing a world class environment for students, staff and local entrepreneurs.
"This IOEE Centre of Excellence is recognition that we have demonstrated our commitment to enterprise and also working with our local partners."
Centres of Excellence recognise the importance of creating and sustaining an enterprising and entrepreneurial culture and support continuous enterprise development, improvement and growth.
To gain accreditation the University had to demonstrate it could successfully meet 12 criteria.
These included anticipating and understanding the needs of its students, delivering what businesses and learners want, and proving that it was a learning organisation that has an enterprise culture.
Good practice highlighted by the IOEE included the University's flexibility of staff and resource managers, which allowed them to do projects, such as one funded by the British Council which created learning material using Worcestershire and Chinese businesses.
It was also impressed by its innovative practice, such as scale-up support, engagement with external partners such as the Local Enterprise Partnership or growth hubs, links to external entrepreneurs and its learning support systems.
As a Centre of Excellence, the 国产视频 is now able to deliver IOEE programmes and qualifications and may receive recognition for its own programmes.
University staff, students and learners can also access IOEE membership.
IOEE's Chief Executive, Sarah Trouten, is looking forward to working very closely with the Business School.
"The team exhibited the qualities that nurture enterprise and entrepreneurial thinking and this has fed directly into both curriculum and extra-curricular activities," she said.
"There is an enterprising culture and clear examples of innovative practices with good engagement with external partners including LEP's, growth hubs and local businesses.
"The team at Worcester are innovative and creative and given the autonomy to achieve great things."
