What types of education and training programs are available?

Because many entrepreneurs do not have the luxury of spending a lot of time and effort attending classes, The Veterans Corporation (TVC) has partnered with Kauffman to offer two extensive online courses found in the eLearning Center. TVC also offers free interactive workshops that provide you with the know-how to establish and run a successful business. Get real-world business strategies and industry knowledge from online workshops designed to help your business grow and succeed. The workshops provide in-depth strategies and solutions to help you manage, operate and build your business, and are accessible 24/7 at no charge. For entrepreneurs who like the camaraderie and peer networking of a traditional course, TVC also offers face-to-face classes at select educational sites across the U.S.

Three Day Owner-Operator Seminar

The Veterans Corporation, Metropolitan Community College-Blue River and the Owner-Operator Independent Drivers Association have formed a partnership to provide entrepreneurial tools for Veterans and Service Disabled Veterans. This three day seminar is designed to assist Veterans in meeting the many challenges that await the driver desiring to become an owner/operator. The seminar will inform you of the process and help you to form reasonable expectations about being an owner-operator.

Before I start my own business, I need to work for one or brush up on some writing and/or other basic skills.

In addition to entrepreneurial skills training, TVC also hosts an interactive educational website, www.Boots2Business.com, which is a collaborative effort of The Veterans Corporation and its publishing partners, Impact Education and Technology Based Solutions.

The Boots2Business site represents the most comprehensive anthology of basic and transitional skills courses for adults available on the internet. The specific focus of the site for Veterans and their families is responsive to the documented need that such services are needed and are not readily available. Access to the site 24/7 from anywhere that internet access can be delivered provides a remarkable resource that could not otherwise be readily accessed by Veterans and family members.
