Give Me 5 130: How to Certify for the WOSB Federal Contract Program
The SBA’s Women Owned Small Businesses Federal Contract Program allows federal contractors to certify as a Woman Owned Small Business (WOSB) or an Economically Disadvantaged Woman Owned Small Business (EDWOSB), and grants contracting officers the ability to set-aside contracts for these certifications. This course will provide an overview of the requirements you need to meet to qualify as a WOSB/EDWOSB firm and walk through necessary steps to self certify for participation in the WOSB Program.
