The U.S. government is a source of new funding opportunities for small businesses, yet very few small business owners take advantage of these opportunities. The federal government, just like any other organization, needs to purchase goods and services to operate effectively. Just about anything a small business produces the government buys, from widgets, to fruits, to napkins, plumbing services, trucking services, you name it; they buy it. These items are routinely purchased, through government contracts,  which often include a 'set-aside' requirement for small businesses, just like yours. 

This program helps to position small businesses to obtain and manage large government contracts. The program consists of five (5) modules over five months covering the following topics:
​

• Foundations in Business
• Sales and Marketing
• Government Contracting
• Financial Management
• Pitching for Government Contracts
