Not every business needs, or benefits from, a loan. The first step is understanding whether debt financing truly aligns with your goals, your business model, and your ability to comfortably repay it.

In this session, you will learn how to determine if taking on a loan is the right step for you. You will also learn what lenders look for when reviewing applications, how AWE evaluates loan requests, and what goes into building a strong, credible loan package. Whether you are exploring funding for the first time or preparing to apply, this orientation will help you make informed, confident decisions about your next steps.

This session is designed for entrepreneurs who are exploring funding, considering their first loan, or unsure if debt is the right move. You will leave with a clearer understanding of your readiness, what lenders expect, and what your next step could look like.

Sessions run weekly on Tuesdays at 12:30 pm and include time for questions. There is no obligation to apply, just practical guidance to help you make an informed decision.
