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:
“[Veterans] feel disappointed, not about the 1914-1918 war but about this war. They liked that war, it was a nice war, a real war a regular war, a commenced war and an ended war. It was a war, and veterans like a war to be a war. They do.”
—Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
“The more I read and the more I talked to other parents of children with disabilities and normal children, the more I found that feelings and emotions about children are very much the same in all families. The accident of illness or disability serves only to intensify feelings and emotions, not to change them.”
—Judith Weatherly (20th century)
