Overview

The Maryland Procurement Academy (MDPA) provides training and performance support resources for Maryland’s procurement professionals, as well as vendors and suppliers seeking to do business with the state. In addition to content, resources, and educational materials, the MDPA develops training aimed at enhancing efficiencies, ensuring ethical behaviors, developing quality personnel, and supporting Maryland procurement for everyone.
The Green Purchasing Specialization is a voluntary training program open to all Certified Maryland Procurement Officers (CMPO) and Certified Maryland Procurement Associates (CMPA). The training is conducted annually, and covers climate literacy, the green marketplace, Maryland laws and regulations, and how to green a contract.
Learn how these programs are benefitting Maryland’s green purchasing efforts through education and how you can leverage their work for your own organization’s learning and development needs.
