The Service Contract Act (SCA) is one of the most technically challenging laws impacting federal contracting for services. Whether you are competing for a SCA-covered award, or you are performing a contract and administering your responsibilities under SCA, this two-day course will help you understand SCA requirements to ensure fair competition and compliance throughout performance of the awarded contract. This course is the nation’s only SCA training conducted in coordination with the Department of Labor’s Wage and Hour Division. It is certified for 13 hours of credit for HRCI and other professional requirements for continued education.

PSC’s updated and enhanced 2017 SCA training course teaches the fundamental requirements of the SCA affecting numerous personnel within your company. All of these personnel must have relevant knowledge, work together, and communicate with each other often in order to be competitive on service contract proposals, and to be in compliance following award.
