[STUART Sheri * OPRD]

Message from Main Street America:

Hello all: we are excited to provide early access to the Small Business Hub to Coordinators, local Main Street Directors, and staff. Please share this with your teams and local Programs. The purpose of early access is to get you familiar with the platform and its features, so that you can then invite small business owners from your communities. The early access period will run from July 31 to August 14. On August 15 we will generate sign up instructions and a link for everyone to share with small business owners in their communities.

To sign up follow the instructions below:

Notes on early access:

  *   Some of the learning (Courses) are still [In Development], they are under SME reviews, resources/graphics being added, so it will be updating frequently.
  *   We are also adding Resources to the Resources Library every week. These are 3rd party content that is relevant and useful and comes from a reputable sources.
  *   For platform navigation or other technical issues, users can provide feedback on the Hub using the "Feedback" widget.
