DESCRIPTION:Register here: https://www.westcenter.org/trainings/how-to-get-women-owned-small-business-wosb-edwosb-certified/\nThe Woman Owned Small Business (WOSB) certification is available for qualified woman owned small businesses through the Small Business Administrations (SBA), Woman-Owned Small Business Federal Contracting Program.
