Are you planning to engage with businesses in your community or start a Business Retention and Expansion (BR+E) project this year? You should attend the upcoming BR+E training sessions to learn the best practices for engaging the businesses in your community.
Through the BR+E program, participants will learn how to make their community a great place to do business.
This 3-part interactive virtual training series will take place in late May and June 2024:
- Session 1 – Wednesday May 29th, 2024 from 10 am to 12 pm
- Session 2 – Wednesday June 12th, 2024 from 10 am to 12 pm
- Session 3 – Wednesday June 26th, 2024 from 10 am to 12 pm
A structured BR+E process can help identify actions to support local businesses and foster growth by:
- prioritizing business engagement
- identifying key challenges and opportunities
- providing insight to develop long-term goals and actions
The training will cover the fundamentals of coordinating a BR+E program in your community, using the OMAFRA four stage process.
