Tribal College Small Business Administration – Indianpreneurship

Mission

The Tribal College Small Business project proposes to create an Indianpreneurship program within the boundaries of our two chartered reservations. The Indianpreneurship curriculum provides comprehensive information on business planning, access to capital, basic bookkeeping, human resources, problem solving, and marketing a small business.
