Bootcamp Targets Would-Be Entrepreneurs

Sometimes the problem with wanting to start your own business isn't a lack of ideas — it's a surplus. 

"To maximize the creative energy behind those entrepreneurial thoughts, you need to embrace the chaos that comes with it," says Catherine Delcin, a business consultant who will be teaching a course on entrepreneurship in Pleasant Hill in April.

Entrepreneurship Bootcamp is being offered by the Mount Diablo Adult Education Center and aims to help would-be business owners "develop the mental outlook needed to create and sustain" a start-up business or an existing business.

The 10-week course begins April 17 and covers topics such as idea generation, industry research, competitor analysis, business and marketing planning, and "an examination of strategic adjustments to the business
model for continued success."

Registration starts March 18. Visit mdusd.k12.ca.us/adulted for more information.
