In order to face the lack of business skills in the craft sector, EOI-Fundesarte has designed a series of training programs so that consolidated companies can improve their situation and entrepreneurs can start their activity with all the tools and knowledge to do so. The courses have a duration of 60 teaching hours and are 100% free and online. In addition, each participant will have 10 hours of personalized tutorials to deal with their specific case. The courses are the following:
1. Craft business consolidation courses
