MDC Is Awarded Grant To Expand Business Program

Citi Foundation and Miami Dade College have expanded their Small Business Education Program.

Through a grant awarded by Citi Foundation, MDC has provided three small business seminars at Wolfson Campus for minority business owners since 2007.

This year, North Campus, West Campus, the Carrie P. Meek Entrepreneurial Education Center and InterAmerican Campus will hold three workshops on Wednesdays March 9, 16 and 23 from 5:30 p.m. – 9 p.m. Spanish classes will be given at IAC.

The College has added two additional seminars for ‘potential’ business owners. The start-up seminars include presenters from the Small Business Administration and others who will explain small business training and progress and a “Going Green” event open to the public on April 20 from 9 a.m. to noon at North Campus.

“Our program is multi-purpose in providing the small business owner with basic tools to manage his or her business. We also help improve economic conditions in this community so everyone wins,” said Josie Lorenzo, the manager of the Small Business Education Program at North Campus.
