Warrior Rising, an organization founded by Veterans for Veterans in 2015, offers free online courses to provide business support to veterans. They aim to assist in creating sustainable businesses and job opportunities, using both the internet and face-to-face networking events to create a unified front.
Their latest initiative, a complimentary month-long online program for Service-Disabled Veteran Entrepreneurs (SDVET), will launch on June 13, 2024. The U.S. Small Business Administration has endorsed this program, which encompasses various resources, including Warrior Academy, Warrior University, a specialized Accelerator program, and virtual coaching sessions.
This comprehensive system of support is structured to deliver entrepreneurial skills and resources crucial to business growth. Participants will be able to apply directly the knowledge they gain to their businesses. These sessions will cover business plan creation, financial management, and strategic marketing, among other topics.
Moreover, Warrior Academy and Warrior University offer in-depth and dedicated courses, respectively, to empower entrepreneurs at different stages. The Business Accelerator program seeks to fast-track business growth, while virtual coaching sessions provide personalized guidance and support.
Application procedures and course details are available on the Warrior Rising website. Accuracy, especially regarding contact information, is crucial to prevent miscommunication. Applications and supported documents are required in PDF format, and late entries are not accepted.
