Description
Many people running small businesses know how to deliver value to customers (e.g., plumbing, construction, landscaping) and would benefit from a basic business education. Local colleges should offer free courses on how to run a small business to equip entrepreneurs with the business planning and accounting knowledge/skills they need to be successful and secure.
Offering these courses for free would be a small direct cost to the taxpayer and yield big economic and employment benefits.
