Federal Contracting for Veterans & Service Disabled Veterans #NVSBW - November 4 11am
The Federal Government spent $ 20.6 billion on Service Disabled Veteran Owned Business (SDVOSB) contracts in 2018. This class provides an overview of the SDVOSB Federal Contracting Program as well as Veteran Owned Small Business eligibility requirements.
The government limits competition for certain contracts to businesses that participate in the SDVOSB program. Joining the disabled veterans’ business program makes your business eligible to compete for the program’s set-aside contracts. You can still compete for contract awards under other socio-economic programs you qualify for. Presented by South Florida SBA.

Business #NVSBW - November 4 12pm Noon
At some point in our careers (working for a company or being our own boss), we will most likely experience a set-back, whether it’s a promotion we didn’t get, an exam we didn’t pass, that perfect job that slipped away from us, or a client that went to another business. Learn tips to:
• Understand the types of set-backs that occur in the business world;
• Learn to accept the reality of the situations;
• See how to analyze the halt of progress; and
• Develop resiliency and progress from failures and disappointments to achieve success.
