We are Nova Scotia’s premiere resource for business support, delivering innovative programs and services that empower individuals and communities to achieve their full potential.

Each year, we help to increase the number of entrepreneurs operating in Nova Scotia through training, financing and networking opportunities. CEED’s unique community of like-minded entrepreneurs focuses on peer learning and continuous support.

Our 40-week Self Employment Benefits (SEB) Program supports entrepreneurs of all ages from idea generation to launch through a combination of individualized coaching and training.

CEED’s Education team puts innovative entrepreneurship learning directly in the hands youth, demonstrating to them the viability of entrepreneurship as a career option.

Our Youth Employability Program (YEP) and our award-winning Second Chance Program, use experimental learning to help young people develop new skills and explore their path in life.
