Congrats to the first 8 women entrepreneurs who have completed Level ONE of the WIPP Federal Contracting Certificate Program!

"Thank you WIPP for including me in the pilot for the certificate program! AveningTech has been in business for a year and prior to the pilot I had already completed a number of the steps in phase I of the program, but I was stymied by the WOSB certification process required by the SBA – it seemed very complicated, and I was considering engaging a third party to do it for me. Your resources, including easy to follow instructions, presentation materials and webinars totally demystified the process and allowed me to identify and upload the documentation required for WOSB certification to the SBA website. In addition, stepping through Level I allowed me to review my SAM registration and ensure that everything was up to date and accurate. I am looking forward to the next phases of the certificate program!"

"I am very excited about the certification program started my WIPP, They have helped in removing the guess work in becoming a federal contractor they made the process easy and laid out the details step by step for a WOSB to prepare themselves to do business with government. We have completed the first level of certification and are excited to get to the next level."
