Oklahoma City (PRWEB) September 1, 2005 -- Blue Spring International CEO, Debra Murray, has been awarded a scholarship to attend the prestigious Tuck-WBENC Executive Program at Dartmouth College, Palisades, NY the end of October, 2005. The program is being offered to assist those Women Business Enterprise (WBE) members to assess, improve and grow their companies.

Blue Spring International became a certified woman owned business earlier this year and as a result I have been afforded opportunities for training and networking with other business owners that I would not have had without the certification. Because of the certification I have connected with various other organizations as a member of NAWBO (National Association of Women Business Owners), WPO (Women Presidents Organization), and WIPP (Women Influencing Public Policy)," said Ms. Murray.

The Tuck-WBENC Executive Program was initiated in 2003 to offer an education program specifically for women-owned businesses that are beyond the start up phase. It assists WBEs in making strategic business decisions, optimize core business processes, ensure adequate cash flows and staffing, and manage business relationships.

The 5-day intensive program is limited to 50 WBE attendees. They will form a learning community that will continue to provide a source of support, expertise, opportunities, and strategic alliances long after the course ends.

Blue Spring International, located in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, is best know for Blue Stuff brand products, and SuperBLUE OTC topical pain relief cream, as well as the Blue Spring Salon, Blue Spring Wellness and EuroPharma brands. With an expanding product line, numerous product distribution channels, strong brand names and a loyal customer base, BSI is viewed as a leading health and wellness company.
