The Readiness Standard™ at the Women's Business Center at Canisius

Talia Johnson-Huff teaching Session 1 of The Readiness Standard™ at the Women's Business Center at Canisius University

Our eight-week intensive ran on Tuesday evenings this fall. Each participant scored a readiness baseline in week one and again in week eight.

The Readiness Standard™ is MWBE Constructors’ proprietary eight-week intensive. This fall it ran on Tuesday evenings from September 1 to October 20, 2026, in collaboration with the Women’s Business Center at Canisius University.

Each session follows the same rhythm: a readiness check, a short lesson, a working lab and a commitment for the week ahead. Participants build their readiness file as they go and finish with a 90-day readiness roadmap.

Organizations interested in bringing The Readiness Standard™ to their members or suppliers can contact us.
