Get The Education You Need To Succeed
From The People Who Know It Best |
The West Coast Franchise Expo (WCFE) provides a forum for one of the most comprehensive learning experiences about franchising to be conducted anywhere - a place to learn from the foremost experts in franchising.
The 2010 WCFE features a variety of Seminars and Symposia. The Conference Program is a something-for-everyone educational experience, from basic how-to sessions to advanced, in-depth examinations of the different franchise relationships and how they affect potential franchisees and those looking to franchise an existing business. There are seminars dedicated to three party franchising, as well as a whole track for current franchisors. So whatever your interest in franchising, there are FREE Seminars designed to your specific needs. Specialty Seminars are also FREE and focus on franchising opportunities for veterans, minorities and women.
For those who seek detailed, in-depth instruction, enrollment in one of the Symposia is highly recommended. Each symposium, which requires a separate fee, is focused on providing information that is specific to a particular segment of the industry. These Symposia are presented by some of the most respected and experienced professionals in the fields of franchising. They offer the most up-to-date practical, legal, strategic and financial issues—and show how to avoid the potential pitfalls; while providing the knowledge necessary to successfully achieve one's objectives. A Special Event Multi-unit Seminar has been added this year. Seating for symposia is reserved so be sure to register early to guarantee seating.
The West Coast Franchise Expo is pleased to announce that Symposia 2, 3 and 4 have been approved for CFE accreditation. To learn more about CFE credits,
