Award-winning business startup workshop offered at substantial savings
San Luis Obispo- Collaboration LLC and Mission Community Services Corporation (MCSC), partners in providing entrepreneur learning programs, are offering a thirty percent savings to the recently unemployed for their upcoming FastTrac® NewVentureTM series of workshops.
In response to the recession and increasing unemployment, The Kauffman Foundation (sponsor of the award-winning FastTrac®programs) has extended a major discount on the program’s study guides and materials to its providers. As a FastTrac® program provider, Collaboration and partner MCSC wish to pass along this support and provide further assistance to persons interested in starting their own businesses.
FastTrac® NewVentureTM is a Kauffman Foundation program designed specifically for entrepreneurs who are in the early stages of developing their business. The four-day interactive program typically costs $1,200, but is offered at $800 to persons who have recently lost employment. The course starts Friday March 6th and continues Wednesdays through mid April at Collaboration’s offices in San Luis Obispo. Interested parties should call Collaboration, 805.541.9040.
“Startup companies have always been a major contributor to job growth through a recession,” says Collaboration LLC President Michael Gunther. “It is our mission to assist those startups in building profitable, sustainable businesses. This not only helps the new business owner, but also helps create and maintain a healthy local economy and community.”
