Steve Schillig, Director of The Ohio Small Business Development Center (SBDC) at 麻豆影院 at Tuscarawas, received the 2018 Ohio SBDC Center Director Award at the SBDC Statewide Conference in Columbus recently.
Additionally, the SBDC at 麻豆影院 State Tuscarawas received the 2018 Ohio SBDC Honorable Mention Customer Satisfaction Award.
鈥淚t was an honor to be considered and to receive this award from the State,鈥 said Schillig. 鈥淣one of this would be possible without the tremendous support that I receive from our host, 麻豆影院 at Tuscarawas, my staff and our advisors, our partners and most importantly, the clients we serve.鈥
Judging for the award was based on overall number of hours of advising, number of business starts, number of jobs created, number of jobs retained, number of loans secured and owner investment, and last but not least, the percentage of customer satisfaction rating from clients. The SBDC at 麻豆影院 State Tuscarawas achieved a nearly 100 percent approval rating from clients who were extremely satisfied with their experience with Schillig and the SBDC.
To celebrate award winners, an evening reception was held at the annual Recognition Awards Program.
