Course Description: Fall 2008

Something Ventured: An Entrepreneurial Approach To Small Business Management is a business course designed to provide aspiring entrepreneurs, and those already involved in a small business venture, with the tools needed to enhance their potential for success. In this course, students are afforded a unique opportunity to observe a variety of small businesses in operation$#151;in both rural and suburban communities, as well as large metropolitan areas$#151;to get an "over-the-shoulder," first-hand look of what it is like to start and operate a small business. The documentary footage is then analyzed and assessed by a council of leading experts in the small business arena. Each of the major modules (Investigating Entrepreneurial Opportunities, Establishing the Firm, Marketing Your Product or Service, Managing Operations, and Financial Management of the Small Business) concludes with a program that profiles a single small business. These more in-depth case studies bring life and dimension to the course of study by allowing students to apply the information they are learning to a real-life situation.

Something Ventured: An Entrepreneurial Approach To Small Business Management is part of the Business Connection$#151;a series of television-based courses designed to enhance a student's career potential in business.

Something Ventured was produced by Intelecom.
