Champlain Valley SCORE is an all-volunteer organization serving western Vermont. Our home office is in Chittenden County and we have branches in Rutland, Middlebury, and St. Albans. Counselors with extensive and wide-ranging business experience provide face-to-face and online counseling for new and existing businesses and present workshops and seminars covering topics from how to write a business plan to internet marketing to business valuations.

For the past 25 years, Champlain Valley SCORE has assisted over 5,000 Vermonters to start, run, and grow businesses. Our services are free and confidential. We’re ready to help you!
