Your Instructor
Welcome to Vet-Com HQ
This online program is designed to give you the instruction and training that you will need to launch or continue to grow your entrepreneurial venture. Guided and taught by top-notch instructors, the content and exercises you will complete are positioned to further your understanding of the steps and activities associated with successfully launching and/or growing a business venture.
The purpose of this course is to help you begin the process of developing a set of skills and competencies focused on entrepreneurial opportunity recognition, innovation, and small business management…But more than that, this course - is about dreaming and action. We will challenge you to think and act boldly, and to break with conventional thinking when it comes to the realities of the marketplace and your own business ideas.
We have designed for you a truly special program, but in the end what you take from the experience will be a function of the work that you put into the your preparation and participation.
In summary, as stated earlier we ask that you think about the Veteran-Preneur program as a way to kick-start and set out on your entrepreneurial journey. In spite of what many think, successful entrepreneurs “don’t go it alone.” Instead, the entrepreneurial process is about seeking and being receptive to the support of others.
This is what Vet-Com.org/Vet-Com HQ is all about.
