The Entrepreneurship Training Program hosted by the UW-Green Bay Small Business Development Center (SBDC) is a comprehensive series of classes and individual coaching designed to help entrepreneurs refine their business concept and attract financing. The goal is to complete a business plan that new or existing businesses can use to improve business management, apply for financing or develop new strategic initiatives.

The 10-week program is offered at the Business Center in Green Bay, 2701 Larsen Road. The class will meet from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. on Wednesday evenings starting Sept. 17 with a two-week break over Thanksgiving.

The Wisconsin Department of Commerce will provide a 75-percent tuition waiver through the Small Business Development Center to qualified candidates prior to starting coursework.  The cost is $250 with a successful application.
