This course offers participants an overview of fundamental business principles as well as dedicated one-on-one support. By graduation, it is intended that participants understand their business model, market, and finances. We expect and support participants as they legally register their business, create budgets and systems of bookkeeping, and write a business plan.

The program consists of:

• 6 different training sites across the city of Detroit (all classes will be held virtually)
• 12 participants in each virtual class
• 12 two-hour virtual sessions (once per week, usually from 6 to 8 pm)
• 10 one-hour one-on-one consultations (scheduled separately with trainer)
• 15-week duration from first class to graduation

Applicants will be assigned to sites based on geography. We only accept applicants who live in Detroit, Hamtramck, or Highland Park. Although we prioritize operational businesses, we may also accept experienced and focused applicants in the start-up or idea phase.

Applications will be reviewed in February and the strongest candidates will be contacted to arrange an interview. Interviews will take place in February and classes will start in late February or early March.

The total cost of the program is $75. It is free to apply.
