Transitioning from the battle field to the work place can be a daunting task for our veterans, but one area University hopes to make that transition a little easier with the help of a business bootcamp.
It's called "From War to Entrepreneur", and it's a free five-session workshop to teach aspiring entrepreneurs the basics of business planning, marketing, and various aspects of financial, legal and accounting issues facing new businesses.

The hands-on bootcamp is open to anyone who served in the U.S. Armed Forces. Classes will be taught by Saint Francis faculty and business professionals and will be held at the University's Small Business Center in Loretto. The program is sponsored by Saint Francis University's Enactus Team and Small Business Development Center with the held of VetAdvisor.

Classes begin January 23rd and are held bi-weekly.
