85 Absolutely Free Online Business Classes

Back when I was in school, which wasn’t that long ago, in order to get this kind of information you had to spend hours in a classroom and thousands of dollars.

Now you can get a big time business education, on your own time, for free.

The following courses range in complexity and length, and should offer a good primer for those of you just starting your own business or who want more specialized knowledge in an area of interest.

I hope you find something here that helps you and your business be successful!

General Small Business

Strategy

Business Plans

Marketing

Financing

Communication

Leadership

Special Interest Business

Business Technology

Business and Social Media

Other

If you know of any free online courses geared towards small business or entrepreneurship let me know about them in the comments section below and I’ll add them to the list.
