MYTH: We're not helping our veterans. Hurry to enroll in this FREE program.

Well, I think it is true that in many ways, as a country, our treatment of veterans is woefully inadequate. But not in Clackamas county. See details below for this FREE series of classes on business management. This is not only for established businesses but also for vet's who would like to start a business.

The Clackamas Community College Small Business Development Center (SBDC) was recently awarded a grant from the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) to develop and deliver a special version of our highly successful and long running Small Business Management Program (SBM). This new Veterans SBM, has been designed especially for returning but recently deployed service members who are either business owners or key employees and whose business has been impacted by their deployment. We are also enrolling veteran business owners with earlier service on a space available basis.

This program will allow each entrepreneur to work “on” and well as “in” his or her business in order to achieve business, family and personal goals. The program is designed and proven to improve small business owners’ management and leadership skills resulting in greater success and profitability.

The program will be taught by Dr. Thomas Jones, recognized as one of the 15 most innovative business educators in the United States and a Vietnam vet himself. (US Army 1967-69 1st Air Cav, MOS 11B-40 Republic of Vietnam).

This class will be 100% fees paid. Class will begin September 16 and be completed by Dec 31, 2010.

If you could help us get this information to our Oregon Vets you would be doing them a great service and helping us get the word out.

Thanks for your assistance and if you, or any of your associates, have any questions please call us.
