Celebrate Small Business Month
October brings around Thanksgiving and Halloween, but for us working in the business department, October means getting down to business – small business that is. If you are a small business person or if you are thinking about starting a small business, this month offers a wide variety of programs and conferences for you to either decide to make the leap to begin a business or to update your skills.
Check out some of these events and resources:
