SUMMARY:CMMC Level 1 for Federal Contractors
DESCRIPTION:Most defense contractors know they need to deal with CMMC. What they don’t know is exactly how to do it\, or where to start. The requirements are clear enough on paper: 15 security practices\, a self-assessment\, an executive affirmation filed in SPRS. \nBut translating that into action? That’s where companies get stuck. They read the same guidance documents three times\, buy tools they don’t need\, or pay consultants thousands of dollars for work they could do themselves. \nStarting July 6 – July 29\, Cape Fear Community College\, in partnership with the North Carolina Military Business Center\, is offering a hands-on CMMC Level 1 course designed specifically for small and mid-sized contractors who want to get this done efficiently and affordably. \nThe course is online\, so you can  join virtually from anywhere. This isn’t limited to the Cape Fear region. If you have an internet connection\, you can participate. \nOver 8 evening sessions across 4 weeks (Mondays and Wednesdays\, 6 to 9 PM)\, participants work through the entire Level 1 process: \n\nScoping your FCI environment so you know exactly what’s covered\nImplementing the 15 required practices with real configurations and policies\nBuilding your evidence pack so you’re audit-ready\nCompleting the self-assessment and preparing your executive affirmation\nFiling in SPRS before you leave the final session\n\nParticipants work on their own systems and documents during the course\, with direct support when questions come up. \nThis is a guided\, control-by-control implementation process where participants configure their own systems and leave with a completed self-assessment ready to file in SPRS. Over 8 evening sessions across 4 weeks\, participants work through each of the 15 required security practices with specific guidance on hardware\, software\, and configuration settings that satisfy each control. Questions are addressed in real time\, whether high-level or deeply technical. \nThe support doesn’t end when class does. The course includes 30 days of follow-up support after the final session\, plus one-on-one office hours throughout the program for individualized help on your specific situation. \nWhen. July 6 – July 29\, 2026 \nCost: $765 (all materials included) \n​​​​​​Seats: 25 available \nFor more information\, see the attached flyer. \nQuestions? Contact Tim Malone\, Regional Program Manager at NCMBC\, at malonet@ncmbc.us or (910) 728-7194. \nRegister

Gold Coast provides a forum to educate\, guide\, and assist businesses\, large and small\, in support of the warfighter mission within The Department of the Navy and throughout the DoD. \nHISTORY \nThe Department of the Navy (DON) Gold Coast\, small business opportunity event began with the Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC) Port Hueneme Office of Small Business. NSWC had a strong need to interface with the Defense Contractors who were or would like to do business with the government in that area. The industry meetings became known as Gold Coast for the beach areas north of Santa Monica\, which carried the same name. Gold Coast industry meetings were successful in attracting companies from Southern California as well as local Oxnard Plain firms. DON Small Business Deputies from the San Diego area began to attend and participate as well in the early 1990’s. The success of the program led to a joint decision to share the load and rotate the responsibility for putting on an event with government agencies from each of the participating systems commands being represented. Gold Coast would be rotated through several agencies in the Southern California area. The first Systems Command to lead Gold Coast was Space and Naval Warfare (SPAWAR) the forerunner to Naval Information Warfare (NAVWAR) Systems Command in 2004. Click here to learn more.
