PowerUP! Competition: Classes

The PowerUP! Competition offers classes in writing, researching and creating the financials for a business plan. All participants are required to take three of the four classes offered. The Financial Projections Class is mandatory. Even if you participated in previous years, you MUST follow this rule - you must take the Financial Projections Class, plus two other PowerUP! classes of your choice.
Each class has a slideshow presentation which is available by clicking on the name of the class below. The slideshows will be available after the class has been given.
If you wish, you may attend all four classes and all team members may also attend. We ask, however, that you attend each class only once since seating is limited. Please select the dates and times that are best for you. If you have a conflict with this schedule that you cannot resolve, email the PowerUP! staff before the date of the class at powerup@brooklynpubliclibrary.org.
