Entrepreneurship Bootcamp For Veterans With Disabilities (EBV)
The Whitman School of Management recently launched a new program that offers experiential training in entrepreneurship and management to post-9/11 veterans who suffer from disabilities as a result of their service to their country. The program is structured in 3 phases. The first phase includes a self-study curriculum phase that is facilitated by an online discussion and various assessment modules. The second phase exposes delegates to the "nuts and bolts" of business ownership through various workshops and lessons from world-class faculty. The 3rd and last phase includes on-going support to the delegates from faculty experts. The EBV program, although founded at Syracuse University's Whitman School of Management, also extends to several other Universities such as the University of Connecticut School of Business, UCLA Anderson School of Management, and Mays Business School.

Famous quotes containing the words veterans and/or disabilities:
“My gentleman gives the law where he is; he will outpray saints in chapel, outgeneral veterans in the field, and outshine all courtesy in the hall. He is good company for pirates, and good with academicians; so that it is useless to fortify yourself against him; he has the private entrance to all minds, and I could as easily exclude myself, as him.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“A child is not a salmon mousse. A child is a temporarily disabled and stunted version of a larger person, whom you will someday know. Your job is to help them overcome the disabilities associated with their size and inexperience so that they get on with being that larger person.”
—Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941)
