Entrepreneurial Training The CEZC uses the NxLevel curriculum for its entrepreneurial training program. Staff members are certified instructors of the program. NxLevel is considered the premier entrepreneurial training program in the nation. One significant advantage of the curriculum is that it caters to business owners and entrepreneurs at all levels of expertise, knowledge, and operation. Entrepreneurial training classes are offered a minimum of two times per year. The training is generally eight weeks in length. The class meets once a week in the evening for three hours. The NxLevel course focuses upon essential skills for success, such as marketing, budget analysis, and sales forecasting. By attending class and completing assignments during the course, participants finish the program with a detailed business plan in hand. In addition, participants are informed about resources (both financial and technical) available to assist in their success. To apply for enrollment in a NxLevel entrepreneurial training session, complete an application, indicating name, contact information, and the type of business you are interested in forming. There is a non-refundable $200.00 fee to participate in the NxLevel Entrepreneurial Training Course.
