About the event

Over the coming months, NW Texas PTAC will transition to a new name: NW Texas APEX Accelerator. Our mission and assistance will not change. You’ll continue to experience exceptional government contracting assistance, just under a new name. We continue to be here for you with all your government contracting needs.

The SBA takes over certification of service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses and veteran-owned small businesses on January 1, 2023 – and soon, all companies will require an SBA certification to qualify as an SDVOSB or VOSB. But what does it take to qualify for these powerful certifications?

In this course, Govology Faculty Instructor & Legal Analyst Steven Koprince offers a plain-English look at eligibility under the new SBA certification program. The webinar will cover the SBA’s often-misunderstood “unconditional” ownership requirements, the unique control requirements, and much more. Steven will also debunk some common SDVOSB/VOSB eligibility myths. Don’t miss it!

Instructor:  Steven J. Koprince is a Faculty Instructor and Legal Analyst at Govology. Before joining Govology, Steven founded and served as the Managing Partner of Koprince McCall Pottroff LLC, a law firm devoted exclusively to providing comprehensive legal services to federal government contractors.

Steven is the author of The Small-Business Guide to Government Contracts (AMACOM Books, 2012) and a co-author of three GovCon Handbooks providing in-depth information on discrete government contracting topics.
