## Mission statement

The Office of Entrepreneurship Education's mission is to provide entrepreneurial information and education, resources and tools to help small businesses succeed. The office is an integral component of Entrepreneurial Development's network of training and counseling services.

## About our office

The Office of Entrepreneurship Education (OEE) develops and promotes innovative resources for small business owners and prospective entrepreneurs. These resources are designed to assist in the start-up, management, and growth of small businesses. Such resources include specialized training sessions, distance learning, written materials, websites, other means of providing business development, business management, and business growth information.

## Key initiatives

###         Community Navigator Pilot program      

The American Rescue Plan Act authorizes SBA to establish the Community Navigator Pilot Program to make grants to, or enter into contracts or cooperative agreements with, private nonprofit organizations, SBA Resource Partners, states, tribes, and units of entities.

The Community Navigator Pilot Program is designed to provide high-quality recovery services and technical assistance with pandemic relief programs to small businesses and entrepreneurs. Recovery services can include offering help with:
                        - Financial assistance and access to capital
                        - Contracting and procurement
                        - Marketing, operations, business development, and exporting
                        - Industry specific training

SBA encourages programming that focuses on supporting communities where English is a second language, and that offers technical assistance in languages other than English.

###         SCORE: For the life of your business      

SCORE is the nation’s largest network of volunteer, expert business mentors, with 10,000 volunteer mentors in approximately 250 chapters nationwide.
