Counseling Services
Business guidance and support is crucial to increasing your odds of long-term success.
Santa Monica College SBDC consultants have expertise in business planning, accessing capital, financial projections, legal issues, marketing and sales, web designing, international trade, business strategy, and business accounting.
They are selected through an extensive interview and training process based on their knowledge and capability to assist with a wide array of business issues. Most of our consultants have master’s degrees, and many also have experience in running their own small business.
