What if there was a business school that made people money instead of costing them money?

What began as an experiment quickly grew from one course into many.
From one small town to multiple countries, a simple idea became a proven model.

Over time, tens of thousands of people took part, with many starting businesses, generating income and creating new opportunities for themselves and others.
But the core remained unchanged. Focus on people empowerment, remove barriers and take action.

Our work has taken us to Colombia, New Zealand, the USA, Mexico, France, Morocco, Namibia, Ireland and across the UK.

Frequently Asked Questions about Rebel

Can I join if I am unemployed?
Yes. The course can be a great way to explore self-employment, build confidence, and create new options for income.
Why do you run these courses for free?
We believe more people should have access to education and support, especially if money is a barrier. Our funded model lets us deliver practical help without charging participants course fees.
Who are these courses for?
Our courses are for people who want to start, test, or make a change in their lives. That includes complete beginners, people with a rough idea, people already trading, and people who just want to explore whether self-employment could work for them.
Is this course for complete beginners?
Yes. Many people join with no business background at all. We keep things practical, simple, and focused on action, not unnecessary jargon.
Are you selling something?
No. We are not here to pressure you into buying a programme at the end. Rebel exists to help people start and grow in a practical, honest, no-nonsense way. If we ever share extra opportunities or resources, there is no obligation attached.
Can I join if I am employed full-time?
Yes. Many people join while working. Rebel is designed to help you test ideas in the real world, often alongside your current job.
