Join us for "Yes You Can! Contracts with the Government," an exciting initiative designed to equip small businesses with the tools and knowledge needed to pursue government contracting opportunities.

In these engaging and interactive sessions, participants will gain practical, real-world insights into how government procurement works and how to navigate the process successfully. Whether you are new to government contracting or looking to strengthen your approach, these workshops are designed to meet you where you are.

This series focuses on helping businesses understand the fundamentals of government contracting—from registrations and finding opportunities to position your business to compete.

Three workshops are scheduled for 2026:

Workshop 1: Introduction to Government Contracting (June 3, 2026)

This first session will cover the basics in plain language - what government contracting is, who buys, and what it takes to get started. Participants will learn about key registrations such as SAM.gov and Washington Electronic Business Solutions (WEBS), common misconceptions, and realistic expectations. This is a great starting point for businesses new to government work.

Workshop 2: Finding Opportunities and Market Research (August 5, 2026)

Workshop 3: Capability Statements and Next Steps (November 4, 2026)

Attendance is complimentary, but pre-registration is required.
