Entrepreneur
You’ll find Entrepreneurs in every profession and industry — people who have a single-minded dedication and are willing to put themselves at risk in order to pursue their passion. They love seeing their ideas and goals take shape and grow and are willing to do whatever it takes to succeed.
As an Entrepreneur, you start with your vision and develop a plan for financing and achieving your goals. As ideas and plans take shape, you utilize multiple skills that include strategic planning, leadership, negotiation, marketing, time management, business management, and more. Then, as your business grows, you continue to invest your time and energy in planning, adjusting, rescheduling, and refining processes and operations in order to improve efficiency and profitability.
Baker’s curriculum is designed to enable you to develop the practical, hands-on business skills needed to create, finance, market, and manage a small business. You’ll study with successful business professionals, in a curriculum that’s designed to help ensure your long-term success.
