Get Your Arkansas Business Certification
Dec. 14 • 1 - 5 p.m.
Rogers-Lowell Area Chamber of Commerce, 317 W. Walnut St., Rogers
Free and open to the public
If you're a minority- or woman-owned business, don't miss this special For Your Information (FYI) Educational Seminar on how to become an Arkansas Certified Business on Dec. 14 from 1 - 5 p.m. at the Rogers-Lowell Area Chamber of Commerce office, 317 W. Walnut St., Rogers.
Certification is now more important than ever since major corporations include supplier diversity as a core business strategy, and use certification as a tool to validate and seek qualified minority businesses. Local and statewide government agencies are mandated to award different percentages of their contracting and bidding opportunities to minority-owned or woman-owned businesses. Certification
is an important stamp of approval, showing that the business is a viable entity capable of meeting its commitments.
Pat Brown and Karen Castle with the Arkansas Economic Development Commission, Small and Minority Business Division, along with James Moore Section Head-EEO/DBE with the Arkansas Highway and Transportation Department will be on hand to walk you through the steps of certification.
This seminar is free and open to the public, but registration is required below.
