The series will include four steps over four months for suppliers interested in learning more about these industries or seeking a refresher course on requirements, potential services, supplier readiness, financial assistance, grants, new business opportunities, and more.
The webinar schedule is as follows:

Step 1: Transitioning to the Defense and Aerospace Industry (SAM, CAGE Codes, Supplier Readiness, etc.)
- Oct. 8, 2024, 2-3 p.m.
Step 2: Small Business Certifications required for Government Contracting and other services from the SBA
