| Ann Arbor SCORE wants to help you succeed. In addition to free face-to-face counseling, we offer low-cost workshops and seminars for both start-up and in-business entrepreneurs. Workshops and seminars are open to all U.S. citizens over the age of 13. Training topics range from writing a business plan to e-commerce to marketing, depending on the current needs of our business community. Workshops also offer an opportunity to interact with other local small business owners. Please review our workshop/seminar calendar below to learn more about upcoming training sessions.
Many workshop presenters are practicing professionals including accountants, lawyers, bankers and business mangers from diverse businesses and industries. Other facilitators are SCORE counselors who have years of industry and business experience.

It is regularly presented in Ann Arbor from 2:00-4:30 on the first Tuesday of the month and Ypsilanti on the third Tuesday of the month from 3:00-5:30 pm.
