8(a) certification is subject of SBA’s Oct. 23rd workshop

September 16, 2014 By ei2admin

The 8(a) Business Development program is a part of the U.S. Small Business Administration’s efforts to promote equal business access for socially and economically disadvantaged individuals, including Black Americans, Hispanic Americans, Native Americans, Asian Pacific Americans, subcontinent Asian Americans, and in in some cases women business owners.

Companies with an 8(a) Certification can benefit from the wide-range of services offered including government contracting set-asides, access to capital, management and technical assistance, and much more.

In order to benefit from the 8(a) program, a company must first qualify and be certified by the SBA.  The SBA’s Georgia District Office is conducting a 3-hour workshop to explain the required qualifications and the certification program.
