    Understanding MWBE Certification for Your Business

    Curious about Minority and Women-Owned Business Enterprise (MWBE) certification but not sure where to start? You’re not alone, and this is exactly the conversation you’ve been needing.

    Join us on Wednesday, May 6 for a practical breakdown of what MWBE certification actually is, who qualifies, and whether it makes sense for your business. Our guest presenter, Me’Shae Brooks-Rolling, MWBE Certification Specialist from WISE Women's Business Center, will walk you through the process step by step so you can stop guessing and start making informed decisions.

    We’ll also talk about what happens after you’re certified, including the real opportunities, resources, and support available to help you land contracts with government agencies and larger corporations.

    Me’Shae brings a wealth of knowledge in both certification and entrepreneurship, so you’ll leave with clarity, direction, and next steps you can actually use.

    Whether you’re just exploring or ready to move forward, this session will give you the insight and confidence to navigate the process and use certification as a tool for growth.

    Bring your questions and come ready to learn how other local business owners are leveraging certification to open new doors.
