NEW YORK, April 20, 2020 – The Goldman Sachs Foundation today announced that it is making its world-class 10,000 Women online business education course available to more women around the world, free of charge.

Goldman Sachs recognizes that in the current climate, leading a small business is more challenging than ever. Goldman Sachs 10,000 Women online business education program is a comprehensive and highly accessible resource, providing practical training on all aspects of business – from finance and operations to leadership, marketing and negotiation.

To support even more women around the world, the Goldman Sachs Foundation will make the online course available to a broader audience around the world.  The curriculum has also been made available in two additional languages – Spanish and Portuguese.

Recognizing the unique challenges and time constraints experienced by small businesses, the online course has also been divided into ten discrete modules, which women entrepreneurs can access at their own pace. Learners can approach the course in a way that suits them best, with the freedom to take any course, or combination of courses, to meet their individual needs.
