MORRIS COUNTY — Small business owners across New Jersey looking to expand their access to government contracts will have a chance to learn how state certifications can help level the playing field during a free webinar next week.
The session, titled “Level Up Your Business: Navigating New Jersey’s Certification Process for Small Enterprises,” will be held on Tuesday, July 28, from 11:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.
The webinar is designed as a step-by-step guide to help small business owners understand how to apply for state-level certifications, including designations for veteran-owned, minority-owned, women-owned, and disabled-owned businesses. Organizers say these certifications can open the door to additional contract opportunities and help drive local economic growth by leveling the playing field for underrepresented business owners.
In addition to the certification overview, representatives from the Apex Accelerator Team will discuss free services available to small business owners interested in exploring government contracting opportunities.
Business owners interested in attending must register in advance by clicking here. Once registered, attendees will receive access details for the webinar in a separate email.
The Apex Accelerator program is funded in part through a cooperative agreement with the Department of Defense.
