Small Business Development Center
Veteran Entrepreneur Training Symposium
June 10-13, 2013 in Reno, NV
The Veteran Entrepreneur Training Symposium (VETS) is a Business Development Conference created by Veterans for Veterans.
The Goal: Provide the knowledge & relationships needed for Veterans to transition into Business Owners to service the Federal Government.
The Difference: The VETS agenda is created by Veterans already doing business with the Federal government -- Veteran Entrepreneurs who have walked in your shoes.
VETS2013 will bring together Federal agencies, Prime contractors, and Veterans to discuss how to take full advantage of the Federally mandated contracting opportunities set aside specifically for Veteran-owned small businesses.

Veterans' Small Business Management
Making the transition from deployment overseas to managing a small business is a unique challenge... WE CAN HELP!
The Veterans' Small Business Management Program is an exceptional opportunity for returning veteran business owners whose businesses have been impacted by their deployment. This program will allow each entrepreneur to work 'on' as well as 'in' his/her business in order to achieve business, family and personal goals. The program is designed and proven to improve small business owners' management and leadership skills resulting in greater success and profitability.
Preference is given to recently deployed veterans whose businesses have been impacted by their deployment, but enrollment is open to all veterans.
Nine class sessions with instructor and peers and personalized advising sessions are similar to the proven and successful Small Business Management Program model.
Class Topics Include:
- Leadership Skills
- Pricing Strategy
- Systems and Standards
- Marketing
- Profit Building Techniques
- Operational Management (including HR)
- Finance
- and more
