1. Financing Plan - 5 or more employees, 5 years in business. Students will conduct an analysis of the firm’s current financial condition and management's plans for the next five years. They will develop financial projections, a financing plan and perform a business valuation.

2. Strategic Plan - 5 or more employees, 5 years in business. Similar to a business plan, but with more of a focus on strategy and allocation of resources to achieve that strategy.

3. Business Development Plan - 3 or more employees, 3 years in business. Students will work with the company to develop a new plan or update an existing business plan.
