“I had an Entrepreneur coaching session with MicroBusiness to help pull together a number of key decisions for my business. Business coaches helped me work through each point, challenged some of the rationale and helped me define a new strategy for a new direction to suit my lifestyle and my customers. I would fully recommend MicroBusiness.”
Experience that I would gladly repeat and will recommend to anyone to go through. Even if you think you know everything you need to know about starting and/or running your own business, you will be surprised how much you actually missed or have not thought off after you complete the course. Networking connections that you gain during the course are priceless. Highly recommend to use their resources.
Microbusiness Training Centre is an excellent resource to assist with starting your small business. They teach you everything you need to know to develop an effective business plan and provide ongoing support while you launch your business. The opportunity to develop relationships with other entrepreneurial minded people is also an invaluable component of the program. As a graduate from 2011 with an established and growing business, I highly recommend Microbusiness Training Centre! : )

“I incorporated my company, Alberta Business Grants Ltd. in November, 2015. To enhance my business skills, I’ve taken business courses and was exploring MBA programs. During my research, I was recommended to Microbusiness Training Centre and met with Deb Cox the company’s President to learn more. They are the real deal. The Entrepreneur Training they offer delivers practical knowledge you can use right away. Solid real-world methods from seasoned business professionals. It has been the best business investment that I’ve made. The one-on-one coaching is so helpful personally and professionally. They are wizards at operations, HR, sales, marketing, and finance etc. The results for my company have been awesome – from nearly zero revenue in month one to profitable in month four. I can’t wait to see where this ends up. If you’re starting a business, growing your business or need some solid business advice, I highly recommend Microbusiness Training Centre.”
As a recent graduate of the Self Employment program I can attest to the excellence in materials, but I feel especially strong regarding the amazing resource the staff is. They are so completely involved in each person’s development and wholly committed to the process that you can’t help but feel empowered by their faith in you and their decades of experience. And that translates in OUR success… less than a month out of the course and I’m so much further ahead in my business than I ever could have been without their support. Truly a life changing event for me and my new business! Thank you SO much to Nancy, Deb, Jim, and Marlene!
