Cal-PCA Intermediate Certificate Program

The Intermediate Certificate Program continues the progression of knowledge and skills learned in the Basic Certificate Program and Basic Workshops but with a choice of study disciplines.  One series concentrates on an information technology acquisition; another on a non-IT goods acquisition; and the third on a non-IT service acquisition.  Each series focuses on the unique laws, policies, procedures, and methods applicable to that discipline.

Information Technology (IT) Request for Proposals

Information Technology (IT) Request for Proposals (RFPs)

The IT RFP Certificate Program is a nine-day (72 hour) course designed to give State procurement professionals the knowledge and skills needed to conduct a traditional Information Technology (IT) procurement that uses a Request for Proposals (RFP) solicitation document.

The nine-day course is split into six modules and delivered over a period of several months to provide participants the opportunity to apply knowledge learned at their worksite, then return for the next module with pertinent questions and experience to share.
