Certification Assist

Certification Application Preparation Service

If you are seeking a certification with a third-party certifier like the U.S. Women's Chamber of Commerce or direct with the Small Business Administration, the USWCC | Certification Assist Team supports you before you formally apply for certification.

We help you to:

  • Organize your documents and prepare the application
  • Troubleshoot potential issues with preparation and eligibility

Certification Services Options

USWCC provides TWO certification services options:

Service Option #1

Third-Party Certification Application and Exam

Formal, Certification Application Submission and Examination Service

As an SBA authorized third-party certifier for the federal WOSB and EDWOSB set-aside programs, the USWCC | Certification Examination Team must follow strict federal guidelines for the intake and exam of your documents and application.

When a firm makes an application for third-party examination, the USWCC | Certification Examination Team cannot consult with you regarding your firm's eligibility. We may ONLY review the documents and application you submit and render a decision regarding your firm's eligibility.
