HOUSTON, TX — September 14, 2025 — San Jacinto College’s Center for Entrepreneurship will host a free workshop titled “Start a Business While Working a Full-Time Job” on Wednesday, September 17th, at the college’s North Campus. The event will run from 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. in Room N-12.201 E, and is open to the public.
The workshop aims to equip attendees with practical strategies to launch and grow a business without leaving their current jobs. All of the participants will learn how to turn after-hours ideas into real revenue by leveraging time management, business planning, and low-risk entrepreneurial tactics.
The event is designed for individuals who dream of entrepreneurship but feel constrained by their 9-to-5 commitments. With inflation and job market uncertainty affecting many households, San Jacinto College is providing this workshop as a resource for financial independence and innovation.

Attendees will also have the opportunity to connect with other aspiring entrepreneurs and access college resources designed to support small business development. No prior business experience is necessary, and anyone interested is encouraged to attend.
The event is hosted by San Jacinto College Center for Entrepreneurship, a division that regularly offers training, mentorship, and events tailored for emerging business owners. The session is free, but attendees are encouraged to RSVP via the QR code provided on the event flyer to reserve their spot.
The workshop will take place at 5800 Uvalde Rd., Houston, TX 77049, a location easily accessible for students and community members on the East side and all its surrounding areas.
