On April 11, 2017, the U.S. Office of Personnel Management will begin the first of four evaluator training courses in FY17. The three-day training course is intended for agency employees who participate in human resources evaluations associated with the Strengthening Agency Accountability initiative. The training focuses on the Human Capital Assessment and Accountability Framework and all three phases of the evaluation process (e.g., pre-onsite, onsite, and post-onsite), and includes real-world practical exercises.
Here is information for the April training course:

If your agency would like to send staff to the April session, please RSVP to Tim Heath at (202) 674-3990 or timothy.heath@opm.gov by close of business March 10, 2017.

Space is limited to 25 participants per course. The remaining three sessions will be offered on June 6-8, 2017; August 22-24, 2017; and September 19-21, 2017.
