Thanks to the Canadian Legacy Project more Canadian Veterans will have the opportunity to receive an education in entrepreneurship and developing a working business plan to get their business up and running. The next Veterans Business Boot Camp will begin on 18 January 2021 and run until 14 February 2021 in an online format.

The deadline for registration is 12 January 2021. Do not delay, registration is limited to 20 students. 

Here is the link to the Veterans Business Boot Camp: https://www.canadianlegacy.org/entrepreneurial-training/

I graduated from the first Veterans Business Boot Camp in 2019 when it was hosted at Mount Royal University in Calgary, Alberta. Here is my blog post I wrote after my personal experience with the Veterans Business Boot Camp: https://thegoodplanblog.blogspot.com/2019/07/veterans-business-boot-camp-good.html

I highly recommend any interested Veteran to take this program, you will gain valuable insights about business and entrepreneurship. 

Thank you, again, to Mr. Dave Howard and the Canadian Legacy Project for offering this valuable learning experience to Canadian Veterans and to Judy McMillan-Evans for your outstanding teaching style.

Until next time...take advantage of the opportunity knocking on your door!!

VAM.

A new resource for the emergency preparedness community has just opened their doors in High River, Alberta - Bridges of Love is a faith-based organization that provides Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) training to members of the community and is under the leadership of Marg Pollon. 

For those who are ready to pitch-in, Bridges of Love is offering a Train-The-Trainer program for Basic CERT Training on 05 & 06 October 2020 at their new headquarters building in High River, Alberta. This will be a full two-day course (see poster - below). Cost is only $49. Register soon as this course is filling up fast and will likely sellout soon.

By taking this training you will be an asset to your community, your neighbours, your family and yourself. Emergency preparedness starts with you. Are you ready?


Contact Marg Pollon and register today!


I, as the author of The G.O.O.D. Plan - Get Out Of Dodge, endorse and encourage everyone to increase their personal level of training in all topics regarding emergency preparedness. Becoming a certified trainer of CERT means you can help train more citizens to be ready if a disaster strikes your neighbourhood. You need to be ready to care for yourself for the first 72-hours!

Help yourself & help your community,
Get trained!

The G.O.O.D. Plan - Get Out Of Dodge is now available on Amazon!!! 


This has been a long journey to achieve an electronic format of The G.O.O.D. Plan - Get Out Of Dodge that is widely available to world wide audience. 

I would like to thank fellow author Mark Meincke (Home Seller's Bible (2018)) and podcast host of The Meincke Show Podcast (https://anchor.fm/mark-meincke) for sharing information that led to the successful completion of this conversion process. 

Listen to the recent podcast when Mark and I had a chat:



I would also like to thank Nita Robinson at Nita Helping Hand (http://www.nitahelpinghand.net/) for all of her patience and assistance to get The G.O.O.D. Plan - Get Out ODodge into a format that would upload on Amazon/Kindle. Contrary to the conversation with Mark, this book did not easily convert. Thanks again, Nita!!

If anyone feels inclined to visit Amazon and leave a book review I would be very appreciative of your continued support. 

Please, share the news far and wide. 

Thank you,

Andrew.
