​The staff of the Small Business Development Center (SBDC) and the Export Assistance Network (EAN) at the Toledo Regional Chamber of Commerce recently went through the process of Accreditation for all of the SBDC’s in the State of Ohio. Accreditation is done every 5 years to make sure that every SBDC is following the Strategic Plan of the Ohio SBDC Lead Center. 
Accreditation is about continuous improvement as well as telling our story of how we have worked together to improve. The Strategic Plan of the Small Business Development Center is comprised of our mission and vision. Our Mission is to Accelerate Business Success. Our Vision is to be the resource for business expertise.
 
The Ohio SBDC is a remarkable network of business advisors, consultants and professionals that focus on one thing: helping Ohio businesses grow. For over 31 years, the program has helped thousands of businesses start, thrive, and build a better Ohio. When it comes to helping small businesses, no other program in the state has the history, impact, and return on investment demonstrated by Ohio SBDC. The Ohio SBDC Strategic Plan is our working agenda. This action-oriented living document guides our activities, investments, and priorities to strengthen services, maximize our resources, improve our workforce, and accelerate business success!
 
The four pillars of the Strategic Plan of the Ohio SBDC are:            
  1. Enrich the Quality of Services
  2. Maximize Economic Impact
  3. Strengthen Our Team
  4. Enhance Visibility
SBDC Directors from Alabama and Texas came to the SBDC at the Toledo Regional Chamber of Commerce to meet with staff. The SBDC staff were asked questions regarding the SBDC and the SBDC State Lead Center which is located in Columbus, Ohio. Overall, the meeting was positive and those on the review team were impressed with what the SBDC/EAN staff are doing.
 
The SBDC received news that the review team was recommending a full and unconditional accreditation for the Ohio SBDC Network!
