Entrepreneurial Training Program
Watch these short clips of the instructor and program participants to learn more of the Entrepreneurial Training Program.
The Entrepreneurial Training Program was created in 1989 by Commonwealth Corporation, a quasi-public Massachusetts state agency
Robust twenty week training program enables entrepreneurs to create effective business plans and launch successful new businesses
Designed to address the needs of individuals with limited business experience, and prior part-time and full-time business experience
Different from separate workshops or seminars in that it offers an integrated approach to thinking through the new business concept
Unique among business planning programs due to program content quality, instructor and guest expertise, and group diversity
Over 3,000 entrepreneurs have graduated from the program, state-wide, representing, about 70% of program entrants, since inception
At last measurement, approximately 70% of newly started businesses were still in business after 3 years, a reversal of commonly cited non-assisted business statistics
Proudly delivered through a partnership of Jermain & Company and Northern Essex Community College in the Merrimack Valley
