The Joseph Business School was established in 1998 as a result of a vision given to Dr. William “Bill” Winston to provide practical business and leadership teaching utilizing biblical principles and resources. The mission is to develop successful Christian entrepreneurs who will create income and employment opportunities for others, through the wealth and job creation that entrepreneurship and vocational training can provide. This, in turn, will assist in the rebuilding of the inner cities.
