THE ENTRER DANS SMALL BUSINESS INCUBATOR PROJECT
The Entrer Dans Small Business Incubator Project was designed by Adult & Children Enterprises, Inc. Executive Director Jewel Morgan, a certified entrepreneurship instructor, to address unmet entrepreneurship educational services and technology training needs.
There are other virtual business programs in the area that offer services to established Small Business owners who have been in business for a minimum of two years or more; however, there was no comprehensive programming, in the Triangle area that included:
- course work
- a guided incubator environment
- technology training
- soft-skills integration
- technical assistance
for start-ups and individuals who had been in business for less than two years.
The course work is delivered in user-friendly, multimodial learning modules, is appropriate for adult learners, and covers a range of topics relating to small business ownership. The education received is applicable to all types of businesses.
Students are required to submit a Pre-business assessment at the beginning of the course. Following six months of face-to-face classroom instruction and interactive workshops students have a chance to practice the skills they have acquired in an guided incubator environment. It is expected that students will meet all learning objectives of the course and graduate with a completed business plan. The final phase of training involves one year of technical assistance.
The Entrer Dans Project and Students in Technology and Entreprepreneurial Programming (S.T.E.P.) Youth Small Business Incubatory model, also designed by Ms. Morgan to serve adolescent youth 11-19, provide strategies for improved asset-based community development. Together the two models have the potential to help youth and adults create economic opportunity for themselves through education and training. Entrepreneurship education is particularly appealing in difficult economic times when families are being impacted by lay-offs and job closings.
We are now enrolling for 2012. Beginning January 23, 2012 classes will be held face-to-face each Monday on site from 6:00 pm to 9:00 pm. For your convenience courses can also be taken online beginning March 5, 2012. For further information give us a call 919.800.0172 . or email us entrerdans@ace-nc.org.
