Learn to be an entrepreneur! Launch your own business! Become independent! Live out your dream!

This class is all you need to know to launch any type of small business. And what's even better, this is not just another "book learning" business class. This is a class based on decades of personal experience as a serial entrepreneur. We will be discussing real world scenarios and hands on tips that are proven to work. If you have any dream of having your own business someday, this is a great foundation to launch from!

The topics covered in this 10 week course are equivalent to a junior college business course, but presented in an age appropriate manner. 

The class flow will be some lecture, some interactive whiteboarding, with plenty of discussion and brainstorming. There will be recommended books to read for further learning and anecdotal evidence about success and failure. Come prepared to participate!
