“There is no substitute for knowledge. To this day, I read three newspapers a day. It is impossible to read a paper without being exposed to ideas. And ideas.. more than money.. are the real currency for success.”

Training

For minimal registration fees (or free, in many cases), SBDC centers also offer workshops, seminars and training courses on topics related to small businesses, taught by faculty, staff and professionals in industry and government.  

The Winthrop SBDC in Rock Hill offers four free “How to Start a Small Business” workshops per year, and sponsors two “IRS Tax Workshop” seminars for small business owners in April and October of each year. Occasional other workshops are also scheduled.

Please check our Calendar for dates of these events.  Online pre-registration is also available for your convenience.

The Winthrop Region’s Florence Area and Coastal Area SBDCs offer their own workshops.  Please click on their web pages to the left, to see their event calendars.
