This program will teach entrepreneurs seeking outside financing or investments in their businesses how to create and deliver an effective sales pitch. The program will cover two principal stages of making an effective pitch: (1) Pre-Pitch Preparation and (2) Making The Pitch.

The emphasis is on hands-on training, meaning that the participants will actively plan and create their pitches, deliver, and refine their pitches before live course instructors, guest instructors, and other participants, until their presentations are polished and ready to be presented to their intended funders.

The program is offered over nine (9) sessions at 75 minutes in length. The format will be a mixture of lectures from the instructors, question and answer discussions, in-class exercises, live pitch presentations, and simulated pitch presentations.
