The U.S. Department of Transportation Bonding Education Program (BEP) is a partnership with King County, MBDA-Tacoma Business Center to help small businesses become bond ready. The BEP consists of classes designed to address what businesses need to do to become bond- ready, and a session with local surety bonding professionals to help assemble the materials necessary for a complete bond application.
The target audience for this program includes small and emerging contractors/consultants in the transportation field. However, the program is open to all contractors/consultants seeking to increase their business capacity and run their operation more effectively.
