Entrepreneurs and would-be entrepreneurs may enroll in a new Entrepreneurship Certificate of Completion at Kansas City Kansas Community College.
Starting in fall 2014, the new program will be offered in partnership with the Kauffman Foundation. Students will be able to take classes separately or as part of the six-hour, for-credit Enterpreneurship Certification of Completion.
These are practical, hands-on business development courses designed to help entrepreneurs hone the skills needed to create, manage and grow successful businesses. Program participants will not just learn about the business, they will work on their own business ideas or ventures, moving those ideas to reality or to new levels of growth.
The program is helpful for people who want to own their own business, who have a concept for a business and want to develop a business plan for their idea, who want to explore the entrepreneurial mindset and the facets of being a successful entrepreneur, or who are currently operating a business and want to take it to the next level.
Classes within the Entrepreneurship Certificate of Completion Program:
• Essential Career Skills (BUSN0140)
• Is Business Ownership for Me? – The Entrepreneurial Mindset (BUSN0181)
• Be Your Own Boss – FastTrac® Planning the Entrepreneurial VentureTM (BUSN0294)
FastTrac® programs were created by entrepreneurs and are facilitated by entrepreneurs.
Seating is limited. For more information contact Karen Gaines, business instructor-marketing program coordinator, at 913-288-7165 or email at [email protected].
