About This Free Workshop
Special district contracts are one of the least crowded public markets. Special districts and other public municipalities, such as water and sanitation districts, fire districts, transit agencies, ports, airports and housing authorities, each run their own purchasing, and many small businesses never look at them. This self-paced workshop, taught by Kevin Phan, shows how they buy and how to get on their vendor lists.
What You Will Learn

- How district boards approve contracts
