Entrepreneur roadmapping the big idea

This 25-hour business start-up course helps anyone become an entrepreneur. If you ever wanted to start a new business but do not know how to start or where to begin, this is the course for you! The course is broken into ten (10) sessions and each session is taught by an industry expert with many years of experience. A binder full of business resources and the lectures is also included with this course.

You will be able to participate in classroom discussions and “make mistakes” in a classroom setting rather than in the real world.

Each participant can take advantage of our free one-on-one business consultation services offered through the PACE Business Development Center and the Women’s Business Center. Upon completion of the program, you will have in hand a business plan, the proper business licenses and permits to get started, and business counselors to help you. Business start-up loans are available.
