The Thirteenth Annual Entrepreneur Academy (FREE) (A certificate will be awarded) After twelve successful years, the Small Business Center once again offers the Annual Entrepreneur Academy. Many entrepreneurs want to start a business right away because the idea of being their own boss is a passion that must be released as soon as possible; however, before money is invested or borrowed, there are several business essentials that new business owners need to understand. The Entrepreneur Academy was created to give you this basic information in just seven short seminars. Information presented during this series includes: • How to fairly evaluate your business idea • How to locate sources of funding • How to start and how to grow your business • How to properly license your business and select the proper legal structure • How to keep proper records and pay the correct taxes • How to develop a customer service plan for your business You may attend as few or as many seminars as you like; however, to receive a certificate issued by the Small Business Center, you must attend at least six of the seven seminars listed below. Each Academy for the past twelve years has produced multiple new business ventures! Make plans now to attend this exciting and informative series. All seminars will be held in the Workforce Development Center. These presentations are open to the public and provided FREE of charge.
