Testimonials

Thank you for the support and seminars you put together.   When I started my company 21 years ago,   I took advantage of all that was offered.   My certification helped me as we grew into a   20-year-old successful company.  You are very much appreciated!  Sincerely,  Patricia
The EBO program has transformed not only our business model   but has created four more roles within our organization,   which is the true story of why the EBO Program is necessary   within the communities, and that is to stimulate small business   involvement and growth. Without the EBO Program, our   business would not have evolved to what it is today….   Janine Grant - The Boundless Group
