 If you are interested in being certified and getting free services to help your business grow, I would highly recommend reading and using the following notes:

The Link - Messer Construction is one of the larger contractors who require WBE/MBE participation. Every customer has their own unique need.

This link Link - SBA Offices is the office that will show you step by step how to get certified. It will take 1/10th of the time going through here if they're as good as other states.

If you are in South Carolina, Spittin@clemson.edu Sherry Pittinger will support you if you have needs with certification. Tell her Christi sent you 🙂

 When it comes to federal government contracts, you may want to contact your APTAC…there are many workshops included on this Website - APTAC as well.

 Also, this Training - Ascent, free in 2021 for the first time, is available for you. The women in our area who are successfully winning government bids have used this website to gain valuable insight into operating their businesses in government purchasing.
