DreamBuilder is a fun and interactive online training program that consists of 13 beginning business courses. You earn a DreamBuilder certificate after completing all the courses.
The Financing Your Dream course is a stand-alone, companion course to DreamBuilder. It helps you get organized, identify the best types of funding for the stage of your business, and prepare to approach funders.
At the end, you will generate a Capital Action Plan that will serve as a step-by-step process for obtaining funding.
It takes about three to four hours to complete and you can take it without having started or completed DreamBuilder. Like the other DreamBuilder courses, you can stop and start at your own convenience.
DreamBuilder is designed for women interested in starting or growing a business.

DreamBuilder is accessible to almost everyone, no matter what your education or experience is. It has a conversational tone, and is like listening to a friend share what she knows about business.

You don’t have to complete all of DreamBuilder at the same time. You don’t even have to complete all of a single course in one sitting.

The benefits of DreamBuilder include a course completion certificate, a draft of your business plan, a community of peers, and access to tools and templates.
The program is free when you register here on our DreamBuilder website. If you sign up through a partner organization, there may be a nominal fee for additional support and activities provided by that organization.
