Calling all Women in Business!

Join us as we celebrate Women's History month with a training on how Ascent, a free digital e-learning platform, can help women entrepreneurs grow and expand their businesses.

We recognize the value that women entrepreneurs present to our great, growing economy. Women entrepreneurs challenge the discrimination that women face in the labor force every day by driving innovation and technology and placing small business on a global competitive playing field.

Ascent is a joint initiative between the White House, the SBA, the U.S. Department of Labor’s Women’s Bureau and the U.S. Department of the Treasury.
