  • If your Training is already on the list, simply send documentation (certificate, etc.)* of completion to atc@aptac-us.org.  No further action is required.
  • NCMA, DAU and FAI training not already on the list need only be submitted for approval if you are pursuing CPP certification.  If you are NOT pursuing new certification, but simply seeking re-certification credits, you may send your documentation of completion (certificate, etc.) to atc@aptac-us.org.

 

Requesting Approval For Training

  • What Training is Eligible for Credit?  Training which supports your ability to perform under the SCAA, as outlined by APTAC’s Body of Knowledge.
  • What Training would NOT be Eligible? Examples of training topics that will not be approved include:
    • NEW! Beginning January 1, 2021, training older than 90 days
    • Training that the PTAC provides for clients
    • New member type program information
    • PTAC strategic planning or internal program matters
    • Quick Books
    • SBA loan processing
    • Internal PTAC processes
    • Website development
  • What Sources are Acceptable? The instructor must have a title and position demonstrating his/her primary expertise in or responsibility for government acquisition, advocacy for small business, or management of a PTAC.  Examples could include a representative of a government agency, prime contractor, or an experienced procurement professional.  PTAC personnel qualify as trainers when conducting formal training at an APTAC national conferences or at approved training events.
