Mobile, Ala. — Applications are now open for the third cohort of the Contractor's College, a program designed to help local contractors develop and expand their businesses.
A partnership with Bishop State Community College and the City of Mobile's Office of Supplier Diversity, the Contractor's College is a 137-hour training program that helps contractors manage public contracts, navigate the bidding process and scale up their operations to take on larger projects. Thanks to support from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, the program's cost can also be waived for qualifying contractors who complete the course.
The program has already seen two cohorts graduate and take their businesses to the next level, and applications to join the third cohort of the Contractor's College are now open.
