You’re not alone – some of the best, most successful companies started with an idea just like that coupled with the drive, passion, and expertise of a brave entrepreneur.

In this course in Entrepreneurship, participants will learn how responsibility and initiative are encouraged as business strategies are conceived and worked through into a promising business plan for a successful venture.
