The Entrepreneurship Bootcamp for Veterans with Disabilities <http://www.whitman.syr.edu/ebv/> (EBV) is an educational program that offers cutting-edge training in entrepreneurship and small business management to post-9/11 military veterans disabled as a result of their service to our country. The intent of the EBV is to open the door to entrepreneurship and small business ownership to our veterans, by developing competencies in accounting, human resources, marketing, advertising, financing, small business law, government contracts, and business planning.
The EBV program is offered through a national partnership of exceptional universities: the Whitman School of Management at Syracuse University, UCLA Anderson School of Management, Florida State University's College of Business, Mays Business School at Texas A&M, and the Krannert School of Management at Purdue University. Each of these world-class business schools will offer the EBV program on their campuses in 2009.
