Two upcoming workshops at FUSE Community Work Hub in Lower Gibsons will provide entrepreneurs and professionals with practical skills, tools and resources to use in their day-to-day business lives.
The Venture Forth Workshop Series, which runs on five Monday evenings, Feb. 15 to March 14, is intended for early-stage or aspiring entrepreneurs who are ready to roll up their sleeves and solve real-world challenges within their ventures.
Each workshop will focus on a different subject area, but they will all share a common theme – helping participants break down barriers to success. Workshops can be attended individually or, for maximum effect, as a series. Every workshop will include a training component and a roundtable discussion, and will provide practical tools and tips for running and building a successful new venture. Venture Forth workshops are $30 plus GST per session, or $120 for the whole series.
On Feb. 27 and 28, FUSE will host WoW! A Weekend of Workshops for the Self-Employed. WoW! offers a complete weekend of professional skills training, inspirational presentations and networking opportunities within a conference format. There are individual workshops in web content, WordPress design, social media, financial management, verbal communication, and reclaiming your creativity. Weekend passes are also available. On Saturday afternoon, local musician and speaker Lowry Olafson will present a powerful keynote entitled “If Not You, Then Who?”
Both workshop series are being held at FUSE Community Work Hub at #15, 292 Gower Point Rd. For more information, see www.fuseworkhub.ca or call 604-740-2179 during FUSE office hours from 9 a.m. to noon, Monday to Friday.
