P/T Foundations Details

P/T Foundations is a series of four online two-hour courses that provide a high-level overview of Professional/Technical (P/T) contracting for new or experienced contracting professionals, program staff, or anyone interested in learning the basics.  The series, offered over a two-week period, includes an optional workshop for agency contracting staff seeking deeper knowledge and the P/T Contracting Profession certification, and while participants typically enroll in the full series, individual classes may also be taken separately.
