The Woman-Owned Small Business Federal Program allows contracting officers to set-a-side or limit federal contracts to WOSBs or economically disadvantaged women-owned small businesses (EDWOSB). This new ruling will level the playing field for WOSBS to compete for Federal contracts. To compete for these contracts you must be certifiied as as WOSB or EDWOSB. This workshop will include an overview of the Woman-owned Small Business Program. Our speaker Angela Hendrix will outline the eligibility requirements, provide step by step guidance on how to self-certify and demonstrate how to access and navigate through GLS (General Login System) and how to upload required documents into the repository. If you are a woman-owned small business with 51% ownership (U.S. citizen), control the day to day operations of your business, and a woman holds the highest postion in your company you maybe eligible for this program.
