The University of Manitoba’s How to Start a Side Hustle workshop has become a permanent option after a successful pilot year. Participants in this six-week workshop develop the skills they need to launch a business, including how to survey customers, develop financial plans, and adapt their vision. “Entrepreneurship is all about capacity to act,” said UManitoba Stu Clark Centre for Entrepreneurship Startup Coach Ben Isakov, who noted that many people do not take action on their ideas because they “just don’t know that they are capable.” UManitoba lab manager Tony Wong noted that the workshop gives students the opportunity to apply the skills that they learn in their regular classes.
