SBDC Small Business Counseling

We can help you improve your business management skills by providing information and offering advice on virtually any aspect of starting and running a small business.

SBDC Small Business Seminars

(For Current Offerings)

Practical, small business seminars go hand-in-hand with the counseling services of the SBDC. If you have questions about starting or operating a small business, our hands-on, down-to-earth workshops are an efficient means to learn what you need to know. Workshop fees are partially underwritten by the U.S. Small Business Administration to make them affordable to most small business owners.

The Wisconsin Small Business Development Center (SBDC) is partially funded by the US Small Business Administration. The support given by the US Small Business Administration does not constitute an expressed or implied endorsement of the cosponsor(s) or participant's opinions, products or services. All programs and services are extended to the public on a nondiscriminatory basis. Special arrangements for the handicapped will be made if requested in advance.
