Entrepreneurship 101: Starting a Business in Fairfax County
The FCEDA conducts a monthly* workshop for individuals interested in starting
a business in Fairfax County. Held in partnership with the Virginia Department
of Business Assistance (DBA) and the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA),
the sessions provide overviews of:
- Business start-up basics (licenses and permits)
- DBA workforce service and training programs
- SBA financing and resources
- SDB, MDE and 8(a) certification
The workshops are generally held on the first Tuesday of each month, unless
a holiday precedes the first Tuesday, in which case the date is shifted to
the second Tuesday of the month. There is no charge, but pre-registration is
required.
