SWaM Certification Lab Workshop

Please note: This workshop is for businesses not yet SWaM certified and have not already applied for their SWaM certification.

Are you a small, women-owned, or minority-owned business (SWaM) who wants to do business with the Commonwealth of Virginia? Small business owners who are looking to participate in Virginia’s specialized procurement and contracting opportunities are encouraged to become SWaM certified.  The SWaM certification is a vehicle to promote economic growth of Virginia’s businesses.

In this workshop you will:

• Learn about the benefits of the SWaM certification program
• Apply for the SWaM certification online as a beta tester for the SBSD’s new certification portal.

A representative from the Virginia Department of Small Business and Supplier Diversity will be on hand to guide you through your online application process.

This workshop will be held in a computer lab so seating is limited.
