I truly believe that my WEDC 60-hour class and the friends that I made in the class have been a blessing. I gained a lot of knowledge in the 60 hours and continue to gain knowledge through the classes offered. Cynthia and the friends that I made in the class have been wonderful sounding boards in helping me make decisions to make my farm grow.

I decided to take the WEDC course because I wanted to provide my business a better background in marketing and advertising.I really didn't know where to start. When I came into the course I got so much more. Knowledge in insurance and networking. If you are deciding on starting a business this is the place to come.
