# Reference (If Applicable) Question Response
1.
Is a university program eligible to be considered a bidder, or would the interpreter-certified individuals be independent bidders? If the former, would the university be eligible to contract with area agencies to provide services?

If a webinar vendor is unable to register or attend this conference webinar, will it be archived or offered at a different time? Some information was required for access to the webinar, which I do not have access during spring break.
Please see HHS0017073 Vendor Conference for all information given during the vendor conference webinar.
