Fulton County Economic Development Corporation (FEDCO) announces the Spring 2025 NxLevel Business Planning and Management course, a business training course that enhances entrepreneurial skills for start-up and existing businesses.
This course will help small business owners, or those who plan to open their own business, learn the skills needed to create, develop and strengthen successful business ventures. The course covers various areas of business ownership, including testing the feasibility of a business idea or expansion before preparing a business plan. Students will learn about marketing, financial statements, business financing and real-life, proven business-management principles while drafting their own business plan.
Past graduates of the class had this to say about their experience:
“This class seriously helped more than I could have ever imagined! This was the best step in starting my business.”
“As an existing business owner, I was not sure what to expect from the class, or even sure if it could help me. But I honestly learned new ways to grow my business and each class kept my attention.”
“Very beneficial. I wish other communities were as proactive about small business.”
This five-week course will be held on Wednesdays from 6-9 p.m. April 2, 9, 23, 30 and May 7.
Graduates of this course are eligible to apply for reduced-interest loans.
The cost for the course is $199 and includes a textbook, workbook, a sample business plan and all handouts.
All classes will be held at the FEDCO office, 822 Main St., Rochester.
