About the Veteran Institute for Procurement (VIP)

VIP is a training program for owners, principals, and C-level executives of service-disabled and veteran-owned small businesses, that specifically addresses federal procurement. Our 27-hour comprehensive certification programs are taught by subject matter experts from industry and government.

VIP has always been offered at no cost to veterans nationwide. Since the creation of VIP in 2009, over 2,000 veteran-owned small businesses from all 50 states, DC, Puerto Rico, and Guam are now procurement ready!

With the support of our partners at SBA, Lockheed Martin Corporation, the State of Maryland and JPMorgan Chase & Co., VIP now offers 5 different curriculums designed to accelerate success and ensure procurement readiness.
For more information on program eligibility requirements, visit nationalvip.org
VIP classes are open to veteran-owned businesses nationwide, and open to one executive from each veteran-owned business enrolled. Class size is limited to 50 individuals. ​VIP programs are offered multiple times each year either in person at The Bolger Center in Potomac, MD or virtually.
