The Commercial Education Trust is an independent grant-making charity, originally established by the London Chamber of Commerce and Industry. CET has a vision of a society in which people have the knowhow, skills and opportunity to succeed in work, thereby creating a thriving UK economy. CET works with a range of charities and organisations, encouraging the development of commercial education from primary school level through to higher education. The Trust has supported initiatives that help schoolchildren prepare for the world of work, assisted higher education and vocational institutes to deliver employability and enterprise education, and funded programmes which bring together the worlds of business and commerce with teaching and education. CET plays a proactive role in developing projects to achieve maximum impact and measure success through evaluation, as well as encourages the sharing of best practice.
