    Name: Business Startup Class (taught in Second Life)
    Date: February 10, 2011
    Time: 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM MST
    Event Description:
    This business startup class is taught at our facility in the 3-D virtual world, Second Life. Class teaches how to start a business in real life, not Second Life.

    **Please note: there are prerequisites to participating in this class, considering it is taught in Second Life: completed avatar, effective use of camera controls, ability to fly, walk, and teleport. You need to hear, but can communicate with text chat so a microphone is not required. Get started in Second Life by going to secondlife.com, downloading the free software, then creating your avatar and completing the basic training offered. This takes about 1 hour and is well worth it! Very fun too!

    Free, personalized training in Second Life is available by contacting Mark Atkinson at [email protected].

    The class teaches how to start a real life business in Wyoming (not a virtual business in Second Life) by completing the four basic phases of business startup which are concept, feasibility (research, business plan, financial projections, market development), Development (accounting system, licenses-permits, business taxes, hiring employees, etc.) and commercialization.
