CEL is offering a program through funding obtained from NYSTAR under the Reimagine Workforce initiative. These are free, 5 week courses (a boot camp and/or a master class) on developing a business, that include class sessions and personal mentors. Classes are offered in 5 locations: Buffalo, Niagara Falls, Jamestown, Olean and Dunkirk.  The boot camp is ideal for someone just starting out or thinking of turning a “side hustle” into a full business. The master class is more for businesses that have started, but need assistance to grow and/or handle the challenges facing entrepreneurs.
