Business & Career Institute to Offer Free Small Business SCORE Workshop Next Two Wednesdays

SOUTH HOLLAND, IL – South Suburban College’s Business & Career Institute and SCORE have once again partnered to bring free business workshops geared for small business developers and owners. The upcoming two-part workshop–Taking Your Business Idea from Concept to Reality–will be offered January 21st and January 28th at the college’s Oak Forest Center.

Attendees may choose to attend one or both of the workshops at no charge to help their business grow and take advantage of the networking opportunities. Registration and networking at SCORE workshops begin at 8:45 a.m., with instruction and discussion to follow from 9:00 a.m. – 10:30 a.m.

Coming up with ideas is the easy part; executing the idea is the hard part. Most entrepreneurs focus more on the ideas and less on how to organize for action. This two-part series workshop includes two sessions on consecutive weeks. The first session is intended to stimulate ideas into business actions. Attendees will learn to become a business thinker by examining and developing an action plan document. The second session the following week is an open panel discussion of selected summaries, also intended to stimulate business thinking. Attendees will learn to sell their ideas professionally, enthusiastically and concisely.

All workshops will be held at the 16333 S. Kilbourn Ave., Oak Forest, Illinois. To register by phone, please call Carmen Garcia at (708) 596-2000, extension 2663. For more information, email NBurrows@ssc.edu.
