The Jim Moran Institute for Global Entrepreneurship, in the Florida State University College of Business, is hosting an information session for prospective applicants for its Small Business Executive Program (SBEP) and Nonprofit Executive Program (NPEP) in Broward and Palm Beach counties. The programs are designed for CEOs, entrepreneurs, business owners, presidents and executive directors of small businesses and nonprofit organizations who are looking to capitalize on business opportunities, implement best practice management and turn challenges into strategic advantage. The information session will be held on Tuesday, Sept. 17 from 3 to 4 p.m. at the Jim Moran Institute’s Broward Office, at 1401 E. Broward Blvd., Suite 304, Fort Lauderdale. Jim Moran Institute team members will brief attendees on the programs’ agendas, time commitment, eligibility requirements and how to apply. The executive programs consist of nine sessions, each focusing on a particular aspect of growing a business or nonprofit. Starting in January and running through May, the spring 2020 sessions will be held once every other week from 8:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. Applicants must be actively involved in running a business, be a key decision-maker and their company must have been established for at least three years and have five or more employees (or volunteers if the company is a nonprofit). Offered at no cost to participants, the programs are funded by Jan Moran and The Jim Moran Foundation. This year marks the 10th anniversary of the Jim Moran Institute for Global Entrepreneurship’s South Florida Operations. Since 2009, the South Florida team has guided and graduated 23 classes through its executive programs.
