- Leveraging Your Certifications
Your small, minority, women or veteran company received its certification ... now what? You're at a competitive disadvantage when you don't understand how the customer buys its goods and services. Spending taxpayer dollars means the State of Maryland has an open and transparent procurement process. This class examines our socioeconomic procurement programs and lays out the procurement pathway. Whether you want to perform as a prime contractor or a subcontractor, you'll learn how to use public data mining strategies to identify which agency is buying what you sell so you can leverage your certification(s) and compete with confidence.

- Maryland's MBE Rights & Responsibilities
What rules govern the Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) Program? Competition is tough in the State contracting arena. Your chances of success are much greater when you understand the rules. This is particularly important when performing as an MBE. Join us for an in-depth look at the statutes and regulations in place today, as well as your rights and responsibilities as an MBE prime contractor or subcontractor.
