When:  Oct 23, 2024 from 02:00 PM to 03:00 PM (ET)

Earlier this year, the United States Department of Transportation revised its regulations governing the federal Disadvantaged Business Enterprise Certification (DBE) program. The DBE program ensures that federally assisted contracts for highway, transit and aviation projects are made available for small business concerns owned and controlled by socially and economically disadvantaged individuals.

The modernization to these regulations opens up this program to many more businesses and businesses that previously participated in the program. Whether you’re a current DBE, previously a DBE, or just curious about DBE certification, this program is for you. This program will be tailored specifically to engineering firms and those in related industries. It will also be helpful to anyone who works in federally assisted contracts for transportation-related projects.
