Workshops
SCORE is different from other organizations because we offer executives with a wealth of expertise and experience in many industry segments. Workshop presenters are SCORE counselors who have achieved success in their field and now, as volunteers, want to help you do the same.    Workshops are grouped Basic (Business Certificate), Special Topic and Custom.
