Looking for a crash course in federal procurement?  This three-hour presentation covers all aspects of the federal procurement standards, and is specifically designed to build step-by-step from core compliance obligations to practical implementation steps and tools.  In this module, Feldesman attorney Scott S.

  • Background legal obligations;
  • Procurement policy drafting and implementation;
  • Basic procurement processes, including competition and sole sourcing rules;
  • Federally funded contract drafting; and
  • Advanced procurement strategies.

Sample tools will be provided as part of the course and will serve as a basis for practical portions of the presentation.  Questions are welcome throughout!

Certificates of Attendance: We verify attendance upon completion of a webinar (live or recorded version) and will only issue certificates in the name of the account holder enrolled in the course. If you need to document attendance for someone other than the account holder, we provide blank Certificates of Attendance for a supervisor to sign and certify that a different individual viewed the course. 

Group Attendance: Due to the online nature of webinars, we cannot verify participation by more than one person. For groups, we provide an attendance record form and blank Certificates of Attendance to record attendance at a group viewing session and document each individual's participation. We recommend that a supervisor or colleague sign the certificate to certify attendance.
