Our cohort-based curriculum is built around your schedule and designed to get you from zero to launch-ready — with every tool, resource, and dollar of support you need to succeed.
Master the fundamentals — business structure, legal requirements, financial basics, and how to identify and validate your business idea. Learn how to access funding and resources available specifically to veteran entrepreneurs.
Develop your marketing plan, brand identity, and customer acquisition strategy. Learn to leverage AI tools, manage your social media, and build the digital presence that drives real business growth.
Finalize your business plan, launch your custom-built website, and prepare for day one of operations. Graduate with a complete launch toolkit, $3,500 in startup funding, and a year of free coaching support.
Our cohorts of 15 students work together throughout the program — providing feedback, support, and accountability. You're not learning alone. You're building alongside a team of veterans who are on the same journey.
Everything you need to
launch and succeed.
Our graduates leave with more than knowledge. They leave with real tools, real funding, and a real business ready to operate.
Your path from
application to launch.
We've made the process straightforward. Here's exactly how VPP works from the moment you apply to the day you open your doors.
Submit your application through our website. Our team reviews applications on a rolling basis. Qualifying single parent veterans are accepted into the next available cohort — limited to 15 students per cohort to ensure a personalized experience.
Join your cohort and begin the curriculum — business foundations, growth strategy, and pre-launch execution. Work alongside 14 other veteran entrepreneurs, share your progress, and build your plan with real peer feedback.
During the program, your custom website is built for you, your marketing toolkit is set up, and your business plan is developed — so that on graduation day, you're not starting from zero. You're starting from ready.
Walk away with your $3,500 in startup funding, a fully functioning website, a year of free coaching, free marketing software access, and a network of fellow veteran business owners behind you. You're ready to launch.
You served your country.
Now build your future.
You have the discipline, the resilience, and the drive. We have the curriculum, the funding, and the network. Together, we'll get your business launched — and your family on solid ground.
