Business owners may attend the entire series, or attend individual workshops to brush-up on specific skills. Courses are conveniently held every third Thursday of the month. The classes are free for guests from the NCR/ TIRZ/ Empowerment Zone corridors. A $5 donation is suggested for guests from outside of these areas.
