Learn ‘soup to nuts’ of government contracting November 7-18

September 15, 2011 By ei2admin

Serious about learning everything about government contracting?  Interested in learning about contracting from a federal contracting officer’s point-of-view?  Looking for an opportunity to learn government contracting in a comprehensive and interactive way?

If you answered “yes” to these three questions, then “Mission-Focused Contracting” —  a two-week course offered by The Contracting Education Academy at Georgia Tech — is the place to be.

This very comprehensive course is being offered on the Georgia Tech campus over a two-week period, November 7 through 18, 2011.   (Please note that there will be no class on Friday, November 11 in observance of Veterans’ Day.)

Mission-Focused Contracting is the capstone course for Level I contracting professionals and all non-contracting personnel who play a role in the acquisition process.  This class is applicable to both government and industry purchasing and engages participants in the entire government acquisition process, from meeting with the government customer to completing the contract close-out process. Throughout this course, participants have the opportunity to learn and apply problem-solving and negotiation skills.

The Contracting Education Academy at Georgia Tech (The Academy) is an approved equivalency training provider to the Defense Acquisition University (DAU) and provides continuing education training to acquisition and government contracting professionals as well as to business professionals working for government contractors or pursuing opportunities in federal contracting.

How You Will Benefit:

By attending this course, participants will learn how to:

  • Complete market research to identify procurement sources
  • Develop a bid or proposal package
  • Evaluate proposals and award contracts
  • Monitor contractor performance, apply remedies, and make proper contract payments
  • Modify contracts, exercise options, and complete the contract closeout process

Business people taking this course have the unprecedented opportunity to sit side-by-side with government contracting personnel to learn the ins and outs of federal contracting.  In addition, many of the principles of federal contracting apply to state and local government procurement.
