The program, free for registrants, allows users to work through four online self-paced video modules and 18 sub-topics, with bonus materials including training from subject matter experts and industry-specific strategies. Every section includes clear and actionable steps for participants to follow, through tools, templates, and resources which address:\u00a0<\/p><ul><li>Module 1 \u2013 Assessing your Current Situation<\/li><li>Module 2 \u2013 Formulating your New Plan<\/li><li>Module 3 \u2013 Running Your Plan<\/li><li>Module 4 \u2013 Funding Your Plan<\/li><\/ul><p>\u201cThe Business Resilience Program will be a pivotal offering for our small business customers who don\u2019t know where to start with their recovery efforts, and also as an educational tool for long-term business viability,\u201d said Elizabeth Lougheed Green, Director, Community Investment at Vancity. \u201cThis small business community plays an instrumental role in fostering success for our province and empowering them with this information will be key as our economy rallies together.\u201d<\/p><p>The program format is \u2018A La Carte\u2019, allowing users to go at their own pace and select the most appropriate content for their current needs &#8211; businesses can also access an online community platform of curated resources, local entrepreneurs, as well as Economic Development and partner members. The program aims to build resilient entrepreneurs and businesses across the world by collaborating with strategic partners who can support this community and allow them to prosper.<\/p><p>\u201cHaving access to these resources and an experienced, engaged community has significantly improved my recovery efforts,\u201d said Michel LeBlond, owner of LeBlond Project Consulting Services who accessed the program through Vancity. \u201cEvery step of the curriculum from finances to customer marketing and fundraising is comprehensive and insightful, and it has enabled me to review and rekindle my commitment to my business.\u201d<\/p><p>To learn more about Spring and The Business Resilience Program visit: <a role=\"\" href=\"http:\/\/Today, Spring Activator Inc, launched the Business Resilience Program, our online program designed to help small businesses and entrepreneurs recover from recent closures and other impacts related to COVID-19 by helping them evaluate their current business, create a plan to survive, and take necessary action to thrive once again.
