Is your business aware of all the opportunities that Wisconsin government procurement has to offer?
Madison Area Technical College is hosting a seminar to help area businesses learn how to compete effectively for contracts, and to sell their products/services to the State government.
“Selling to the State of Wisconsin” will be held in the morning from 9:00 – 11:30 am on Tuesday, May 17th. This comprehensive seminar provides a foundation for contracting with the State of Wisconsin government. By attending this seminar you will learn how the State procures the products and services it needs, which agencies buy what items/services and will learn how to use VendorNet, the State of Wisconsin’s electronic purchasing information system.
The training session will be offered at the Reedsburg Campus of Madison Area Technical College, 300 Alexander Avenue, Reedsburg on May 17th. Pre-registration is required. The fee for this seminar is $35.00 per person. Visit the web at http://madisoncollege.org/bpac-wi for online registration and additional information.
