The Illinois Small Business Development Center (SBDC) at Waubonsee Community College is hosting a Business Growth Academy. This is an 8-week program designed to help businesses chart their growth path. It is based on the Kauffman Foundation’s award-winning FastTrac© curriculum.
This is an exciting opportunity for business owners to build a strategic growth plan for their company with guidance from experienced consultants. In addition, several local entrepreneurs will come to the sessions to share their experiences, a great chance to learn from each other.
For a limited-time, this program is being offered for free thanks to a successful partnership between the SBDC, Fox Valley Entrepreneurship Center, Waubonsee Community College, and our lead-sponsor, The Dunham Fund.
Applications are now being accepted for the Spring Session. Ideal candidates are owners of businesses that have been in operation for two years or more, have between $50,000 and $250,000 in annual revenue, and are located in Kane County. Sessions will be held from 6 to 9 p.m. on March 5, March 19, April 9, April 23, May 7, May 21, June 4, June 18, and June 25. All sessions will be at Waubonsee’s Aurora Downtown Campus.
