About the CBA: The Community Business Academy is a 12-week course offering hands-on training in business planning and business management. The course covers topics like budgeting, marketing, bookkeeping, cash flow, pricing strategies, and credit building in a dynamic learning environment. Classes are held once a week in the evenings at various locations throughout Chicago. The small business lab is a part of CBA that presents a unique environment where participants gain hands-on experience in running a business under real-world conditions. Each session simulates a month of business activity in the marketplace, where teams compete for business while striving to earn a profit. Teams track sales, expenses and monitor cash flow, all while sharpening essential marketing and finance skills.
