Your Partner for Success:  We offer free, confidential, one-on-one counseling as well as low cost seminars and workshops and referrals to specialized business information and resources.

Whether you're already operating or considering starting a part-time business or a large manufacturing service or retail business, the Small Business Development Center at Yuba Community College District can help!  Where to start. 

Visit our friendly EDC.

Have an Existing Business?  Owners of existing businesses can contact the SBDC for assistance and move immediately to FREE one-on-one counseling or training programs, including low cost training classes in key business skills.

Starting a New Business?  Sign up for our Pre-Business workshop.  The workshop provides basic information on state, local and federal requirements for starting and operating a business.  There is a nominal fee for this workshop.   

After the initial workshop, you'll be eligible for FREE one-on-one business counseling.  Your business counselor will work with you on specific issues associated with starting your particular business and help you develop your business plan.

Specific help is also available for loan package preparation, marketing, manufacturing, accounting, taxes, Internet marketing, selling on the Internet, and other specific topics.  Explore further.

Here is how to do it ...  Call us at (530) 822-0140 or use our on-line scheduling.  We will ask you a few questions to determine the nature of your need.  We will set up an appointment for you either at a pre-business workshop, or for one-on-one business counseling.  We offer appointments at our locations in Yuba City, Woodland or Lake County.  We will do our best to make the appointment at a time and location convenient for you.

An SBDC consultant works with you to determine your individual business needs, and develop a scope of work based on your desired outcomes.  The consultant will direct you to research sources and review your business plan.

You can work at your own pace utilizing the resources you prefer.

Seminars, Workshops and area Events to help you build your business!
