TESTIMONIALS FROM ALUMNI & EMPLOYERS

 

Anne Skoch"The entrepreneurship program kick-started my entrepreneurial mindset and enabled me to grow my startup into a full-time career post-graduation. I was able to apply my coursework directly to my business and work with entrepreneurs one-on-one to learn how to succeed in my startup. I have been in business for five years thanks to the entrepreneurship program and look forward to continuing my growth thanks to everything I learned in the Ambassador Crawford College of Business and Entrepreneurship."
