Introduction to the VIP Training Programs

This webinar will provide an in-depth overview of the Veteran Institute for Procurement (VIP), a nationally recognized training program for Veteran-Owned small businesses. Attendees will learn about VIP’s six training programs, which are designed to help veteran entrepreneurs compete, comply, and perform on government contracts, while also building valuable partnerships.

Since the program’s inception, more than 3,500 Veteran-Owned businesses have graduated and, by leveraging VIP’s tools, resources, and connections, have secured over $50 billion in federal prime contract awards. VIP is an official SBA resource partner and is therefore able to offer these valuable training programs at absolutely no cost to the Veteran business community.

Speaker

Mauricio Vera, Assistant National Director, Veteran Institute for Procurement (VIP)
