Principles of Appropriations Law Training - An Orientation to Federal Fiscal Law
We have three classes scheduled at GAO in fiscal year 2010:
- March 23 - 25
- May 18 - 20, and
- July 27 - 29.
These classes are held primarily for GAO employees; however, we allot about 10 - 15 slots per class for outside participants.
All FY 2010 classes are currently full. You can get on the waiting list, but you still may not get into a class. We will contact you if a space becomes available.
We also schedule contracted group training for federal agencies upon request.
See information on registering.
