SUMMARY:Start Smart
DESCRIPTION:Registration is required to get the Zoom link\, contact Mary Spitz-SBDC office at NIACC: 641.422.4342 or mary.spitz@niacc.edu. \nThe NIACC Pappajohn Center and the Small Business Development Center (SBDC) is offering a free two-hour workshop designed for anyone who is considering starting a business.
