WEV is excited to offer the Explore Program in Ventura and Santa Barbara counties!
This 4-session course is designed for those who are exploring the possibility of opening up their own business and want to make an informed decision about their personal readiness. If you don’t yet have a product or service or have never owned a business, this may be the course for you.
The course helps clarify and demystify several business concepts. Through small group discussions and hands on activities, individuals will be able to get a better understanding of their own readiness and understanding of what is required when launching a business and if they are ready, both financially and emotionally, to take the next step.
