CLIENT RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES

 

 

 

Funded in  part through a cooperative agreement with SBA

 

As a new client of the Illinois Small Business Development Center (SBDC), we'd like to advise you of certain rights and responsibilities you have as one of our clients:

 

You have a right to expect:

·          prompt, courteous, and professional counseling services and to be advised if the Illinois SBDC is unable to provide service within the time frame required.  Be aware that due to the demand for our services, cases must often be prioritized by need and training may be recommended before counseling is provided.

·          all information shared with the Illinois SBDC and any of its resources (staff, faculty, volunteers, and consultants) will be held in strictest confidence.  No information provided by you will be used to the commercial advantage of any staff member, consultant, or other resource of the Illinois SBDC or to the benefit of any third party.

·          that your client status with the Illinois SBDC will remain confidential.  No public use of your name, address, or business identity will be made without your prior approval. Please note, however, that the Illinois SBDC is funded in part by the U.S. Small Business Administration, Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity and the local host so, limited information with respect to your client status is provided to those entities.

               

Our role is to counsel and assist small business owners and those planning to go into business.  We will not make business decisions or judgments for you, though we will make recommendations and suggestions as appropriate.  These will be based upon our best efforts to apply the experience and resources available to us to assist you in making your own business decisions.

 

The Illinois SBDC may charge reasonable fees for training programs, special services, and publications. However, you have a right to feel secure that no fee will be charged by the ISBDC or its resources for normal counseling services provided to you.  Also, no recommendations will be made as to the purchase of goods or services from any individual or firm with whom any I
