I finally got the courage to form my own small business in Delaware called Avvira Global LLC. For now it will just be for some generic business activity like driving for Uber and providing “consulting and professional services.” This was a huge step for me because I was a scared and filled with trepidation from past mistakes. But I had to take the first step and the first step is done. I will be my own single-member LLC and I am going to make a go at it.
Once I have enough in savings, I would like to morph my activities into information technology training and education. But this requires a lot more steps as it is considered a regulated business and I would need to gain approval through the Delaware Department of Education among other Delaware government entities. I know I have a road ahead but it is somewhat exciting.
With all of the ability I have in IT, I think the next logical step for me is to become my own training school. I would love to teach future generations how to be competent network and systems engineers. I want to offer labs that show how the actual internet and TCP/IP networks operate. What if I can better prepare students for the rapidly increasing digital world? What if I can give my students a well-rounded foundation to get them started professionally such that they know more than theory. They can get their hands down and dirty into complex problems.
I know I am going to have to develop a semi-customized curriculum in addition to the approved training materials that a vendor may provide. This will probably be somewhat challenging. I’ll have to engage a LMS like Moodle. I know I will probably need an ERP System like ERPNext. So much to do and so much to brainstorm. But I feel like something exciting might come out of this. I am hopeful but taking it very slow and measured.
