Is the Entrepreneurship Program Right For You?
Is CVTC’s Entrepreneurship program right for you? Let’s take a look at what you can expect and the opportunities available to you.
You Can Succeed
It takes more than just having a solid business plan and some good fortune that leads someone to succeed in starting their own business. It takes a certain kind of person with specific knowledge and lots of passion to succeed. CVTC can help you find those qualities within yourself and provide you with the information you need.
Entrepreneurs are calculated risk-takers who understand that starting a business involves some risk, but also understand that learning and planning can help minimize and manage risk. Successful entrepreneurs are action-oriented people who know that success isn’t going to happen by accident. They take the actions necessary to bring success their way. Entrepreneurs want to constantly learn and improve, realizing that stagnation leads to failure.
If you are someone who has these qualities and a passion for success, CVTC’s Entrepreneurship program can put you on the path toward achieving your goals.
Opportunities Abound
Opportunities for start-up businesses to succeed are everywhere; it’s a matter of seeing them and taking advantage of them. According to the Small Business Administration, there were more than 30.2 million small businesses in the United States in 2018, making up over 99 percent of all businesses. Even well-known big businesses started out small. We can help you find, refine and plan your business idea.
