SBP 202, Intermediate Small Business Programs, Part B, was successfully piloted for instructors from August 29 to September 2, 2016. This new classroom course is the 7th of nine new small business courses in development for the Small Business Career Field and will be required for Level 2 Certification. This 5-day resident course has a pre-requisite course in SBP 201, Intermediate Small Business Programs, Part A, which is a Distance Learning course.
SBP 202 prepares mid-level Small Business Professionals to work effectively with acquisition teams throughout the acquisition lifecycle. Students demonstrate their comprehension of concepts introduced in SBP 201, by completing a series of activities typical of what they will do on the job, including devising a market research strategy; developing a supported, justified acquisition strategy based on the market research; contributing to solicitation documents, training a source selection evaluation board in the evaluation standards for a given solicitation, evaluating small business elements of a proposal; reviewing subcontracting plans; and creating a post-award briefing. As a capstone to the course, students will help each other in resolving small business issues that they are currently confronting in their agencies.
