COMMUNITY ENTREPRENEURS PROGRAM (CEP): If you believe that lack of business experience or personal challenges, such as family obligations or limited resources will prevent you from starting and owning a successful business, this program can help. Join other aspiring entrepreneurs in this supportive eighteen-week program and build a plan that takes all aspects of your life into account. We recommend participants take both modules to fully prepare to launch their business.

Considering entrepreneurship? Have a business idea but not sure where to start? Not sure how, or even if, entrepreneurship can fit into your life? CWE’s Visioning module is the first step to turning your dreams of owning your own business into a reality. Visioning will help you explore the challenges and rewards of self-employment, create a vision for your business, and consider your long-term goals. Topics include clarifying your business idea, developing a mission statement, analyzing the strengths and weaknesses of your business idea, creating long and short-term business goals, and developing a business start-up action plan. Four 3-hour classes, $135, $125 if you pre-register. Partial scholarships are available.
