The Network Marketing Business Development Class is 18 weeks long and has been divided into three phases:

1. Learning Operations for Your Business
2. Learning to Stay in Phase One of Operations

Each phase is divided into six classes of which an expert in each field volunteers his or her time to share their knowledge and/or field experience to help other veterans. Each phase can be taken separately with an open enrollment.

All classes will be held on Thursdays from 5:30-6:30 p.m. at the American Red Cross, 3757 Euclid Avenue, unless directed to another location. It is recommended if you are planning a vocational goal of self-employment, you acquire a computer competency that includes skills in Windows, and Word Processing. Internet Access is also advisable. If you do not have computer skills, you may find it more difficult to be successful in the 2002 business climate. This skill barrier will continue to become more acute. Computer classes are available through the VBRC. Contact Robin for more information.

This program is available to all Veterans, their siblings and spouses. It is also available to qualified Disabled, Work to Welfare and Low to Moderate Income Individuals. All fees are paid by the VBRC which is funded by a grant from the United Black Fund. Please review the qualifications for program participation.
