To help make the transition easier, the California Procurement & Contracting Academy (CalPCA) is offering live webinars to assist with Cal eProcure supplier registration and Small Business/Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise certification. The site alsos allows companies to register as small businesses women, veterans or disadvantaged businesses or SB/DVBE Certification Webinars can be accessed at the following link: http://fiscal.ca.gov/training-academy/StatewideTraining.html To enroll in a webinar, visit the CalPCA website: http://www.dgs.ca.gov/pd/Programs/CalPCA.aspx Under the tab labeled "FI$Cal Training (Suppliers/Bidders/General Public)," select "FI$Cal Registration" or "SB/DVBE Certification" to open the training calendar.
