Principles of Appropriations Law Training - An Orientation to Federal Fiscal Law
We have two classes scheduled at GAO in fiscal year 2011:
- April 12 - 14
- June 21 - 23.
These classes are held primarily for GAO employees; however, we allot about 10 - 15 slots per class for outside participants.
If classes are currently full, you can request to be placed on the waiting list.
We also schedule contracted group training for federal agencies upon request. However, these classes are scheduled based upon instructor availability.
See information on registering.
