About Us

Welcome to the Pittsburgh SCORE Chapter

The Pittsburgh Chapter of SCORE was founded in 1965 as Chapter Number 7. We are an active chapter with more than 50 volunteers. 

The counselors of Pittsburgh SCORE are experienced business owners and managers who volunteer their experience and knowledge to help small business owners and potential small business owners achieve success.

Pittsburgh SCORE has counseled more than 20,000 business persons, helping to create and retain thousands of jobs in western Pennsylvania. Client service is the objective of Pittsburgh SCORE and our volunteer business counselors are dedicated to providing the best possible service. Face-to-face or online, the counselors of Pittsburgh SCORE are able and willing to aid in the success of small business. Pittsburgh SCORE counselors provide you with in-depth, industry-specific business assistance to help evaluate a business idea or plan, stimulate business growth and ensure long-term stability.

SCORE is a resource partner of the U. S. Small Business Administration. Nationally, there are 389 chapters with over 11,000 members. Since 1964, SCORE chapters have advised more than 4 million business owners.
 
New SCORE counselors start with an average of 35-plus years of business experience. They build on this with three months of training on topics ranging from listening skills and SBA Programs to business planning. They learn to ask the right questions to get to the root of business problems and opportunities. All counselors attend regular sessions to keep their skills up to date.
 
SCORE is always looking for new volunteers. Please contact us if you are interested.
