The Jim Moran Institute for Global Entrepreneurship in the Florida State University College of Business is accepting applications for its Small Business Executive Program (SBEP) Class IV in Jacksonville. Application deadline is July 20.

The SBEP is designed to help for-profit businesses work “on” their business while accommodating the busy schedule of small business owners. Participants will learn the Business Model Canvas and be given other tools to emerge as stronger leaders ready to capitalize on business opportunities.

“Our goal is for each CEO who goes through this program to become more efficient and think differently in the way they run their businesses,” said Stephanie Royal, associate director of the Jim Moran Institute’s North Florida Operations.

To apply, visit jmi.fsu.edu and click on Programs. Businesses operating for three years or more and with five or more employees are eligible to apply. Twenty participants from non-competing businesses will be accepted into the four-month program, which starts Aug. 15 and runs through Nov. 6. Sessions will take place once a month for four hours in the afternoon.
