Entrepreneurial Development Program®

"Don't teach me the best way that you can teach. Teach me the best way that I can learn."  Words of a child.

The Entrepreneurial Development Program of the business incubators sponsored by the Services Cooperative Association teaches you what you need to know to have a successful business and teaches you in the best way that you learn.

The development methodology is custom tailored to your resources, attributes and aptitude for the entrepreneurial process.

It teaches you how to be the competent CEO and manage the activities of marketing, operations, administration and finance of your business.

It provides you with a total support system so that you learn everything you need to know, at your own pace, in your own time.

It gives you the confidence and motivation to have a business you will be proud of building and owning.
