Zoom Event

Join us for a Minority (M/W/DBE) Certification Workshop led by Oscar Gutierrez, director of the PTAC/APEX Accelerator program at the Illinois Hispanic Chamber of Commerce (IHCC).

This workshop is perfect for business owners wanting to learn about the initial processes of government contracting.

You will learn about the importance and benefits of becoming a certified Minority Business Enterprise (MBE), Women Business Enterprise (WBE), or Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE), especially if you are interested in government contracting. You will also receive step-by-step guidance on how to complete the certification process, including the necessary documentation and requirements.

After attending this workshop, you can later meet with Oscar Gutierrez, who will provide one-on-one technical assistance to help your business succeed. You will learn how to maximize your opportunities and get exposure to local, statewide, and government agencies.

To take advantage of the PTAC/APEX Accelerator program services, businesses are required to have an established commercial market and work experience. This workshop is designed for businesses that are ready to explore government contracting.

Presented in collaboration with Glenview and Wilmette Public Libraries.

Online registration is closed.
