The OJC SCORE Center is one of 20 community based SBDC service-centers providing free one-on-one counseling services in the areas of business research and marketing, new business feasibility analysis, business plan preparation, finance packaging and other small business topics.
Local SBDCs offer workshops and seminars for business owners and act as information clearing houses. Individual local offices specialize in international trade, government procurement, manufacturing, home-based business and technology resources. The SBDC receives inputs from the SBDC State Advisory Board.
"We are excited to be able to offer this one-of-a-kind facility to the residents of southeastern Colorado," said Bill Dutro, director of the local Small Business Development Center (SBDC), which has its office inside the SCORE Center.
