SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Description of the SBDC Program

A partnership exists between SBA

and an SBDC. SBDCs offer training,

counseling and other business

development assistance to small

businesses. Each SBDC provides

services under a negotiated Cooperative

Agreement with SBA, the general

management and oversight of SBA, and

a state plan initially approved by the

Governor. Non-Federal funds must

match Federal funds. An SBDC must

operate according to law, the

Cooperative Agreement, SBA’s

regulations, the annual Program

Announcement, and program guidance.

Program Objectives

The SBDC program uses Federal

funds to leverage the resources of states,

academic institutions and the private

sector to:

(a) Strengthen the small business

community;
