The CEL Core program, now in its 23rd year, is a 10-month opportunity designed to help Western New York businesses and entrepreneurs improve their bottom line and be successful. The program is accepting applications for September enrollment.

Thomas Ulbrich, executive director of the CEL, and several Core program alumni will be available at the open house to answer questions.
