Business Abilities
Entrepreneurial Training |
|
The
Business
Abilities website will give
you the tools you need to research
your business idea and prepare your
business plan. Once you have your
venture started our site will
continue to provide you with
business management workshops that
will help you grow your business.
Intake is continuous and is funded
by the Opportunities Fund. BA is an
entrepreneurial training program
that teaches any PWD that wants to
explore self employment, how to
research their business idea and
build a business plan. Once the
student has their BP created we
review and critique it and then when
they are ready to establish their
business we continue to offer
one-on-one coaching and advanced
business management modules to help
them become successful.

The
“award winning” Internet Business
Development for Entrepreneurs with
Disabilities (IBDE) Program,
conducted by the Canadian Society
for Social Development (CSSD)
teaches new marketable skills to
Canadians with disabilities, in a
self-paced and supported work and
learning environment.
The
IBDE program is a three month
on-line, web design course followed
by a three month segment where
students put their new skills into
practice building a web site under
the guidance of their instructor.
The IBDE program is accredited by
Selkirk College in Nelson, BC and
students completing both the
curriculum and practicum will
receive a certificate.
This
program is primarily funded by
Office of Learning Technologies and
we have an annual intake, with the
next group scheduled to start in
October 2006. Tuition grants
are available for qualifying
individuals.
