SmallBizU™ Open for Enrollment at Cornhusker Power

First in its kind, SmallBizU is an eLearning University dedicated to providing local entrepreneurs and small businesses with the real world tools and information they need to be successful.

SmallBizU was launched by Cornhusker Public Power District through the National Rural Electric Cooperative Association’s (NRECA) Community and Economic Development Unit to encourage small business development in local communities.

People in the area will have complete access to 25 core courses, each ranging about three hours long, at the SmallBizU Web site. SmallBizU focuses on delivering state-of-the-art small business education with courses featuring the 3M’s: Money, Marketing, and Management.

“Cornhusker Power customers and neighbors can click on the SmallBizU icon and go straight to a self-tutorial covering every facet of small business start-ups,” said Cornhusker Power General Manager Ron Hostetter. “For Cornhusker customers and neighbors it provides opportunities for those who want to launch a small business, entrepreneurs, youngsters interested in starting their own enterprise, retired customers with an idea and graduate students,” he added.
