The Association of Procurement Technical Assistance Centers (PTAC) and the Center for Veterans Enterprise (CVE), with assistance of the Defense Acquisition University (DAU) have teamed to create the “Federal Contractor Certification “(FCC).
The FCC is a training program for business owners and is specifically designed to help them understand Federal Contracting, help them respond intelligently to solicitations and perform successfully when a contract has been awarded.
The pilot program started on July 29, 2009. To participate in the training program interested businesses must register with a participating Procurement Technical Assistance Center (PTAC). Interested business owners (Veteran and non-Veteran) in the El Paso region may contact the El Paso Community College’s Contract Opportunities Center to express their interest in participating in the program.
It is requested that any business owner that has an interest in participating in the FCC program, please contact the Contract Opportunities Center at 915-831-7749 so that your name can be added to the FCC contact list. An orientation will be held in the very near future for those whose names appear on the list.
Should you wish additional information, you may go to the Center for Veteran Enterprises web site, www.VetBiz.gov or see the attached flyer or contact Pablo Armendariz at 915-831-7747.
