miniMBA University courses are divided into the following categories:
- Investor Series - courses related to subjects related to personal finance skills, including budgeting, savings, and investing.
- Owner Series - courses to teach the basics of starting a small business, including business plan development, marketing, and small business operations.
- Manager Series - practical courses on leadership and management of people and organizational resources.
- General Business Skills - classes on practical business skills. "Hard Skills" courses include financial analysis, time value of money, and using MS Excel as a business tool. "Soft Skills" courses include the art of networking, public speaking, and effective communication.
Courses are deployed through live online sessions, in-person workshops, and recorded web sessions. if you would like to request a miniMBA University course for your group, e-mail Laura Anderson at laura@risingfarmworkers.org
