Federal Employees Benefit from TSOD Federal Acquisition Regulation Training & Negotiation Skills Workshop
November 20, 2009
(Minneapolis, Minnesota) Training Services On Demand provided a customized, five-day learning experience for warranted contracting officers at the regional office of the Department of the Interior's Fish and Wildlife Service at Fort Snelling (near Minneapolis), Minnesota. The workshop included three days of training on using Federal Acquisition Regulations to legally, effectually, and economically complete simplified purchases, and two days of negotiations skills training designed to assist contracting officers in thinking "out of the box" in optimizing the value of federal purchases to benefit taxpayers.
TSOD's FAR training provides a customized exploration of the Federal Acquisition Regulations System, which establishes uniform policies and procedures for acquisition by all executive agencies. The Federal Acquisition Regulations System consists of the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR), which is the primary document, and agency acquisition regulations that implement or supplement the FAR.
TSOD Negotiation Skills Workshops (http://www.tsod.com/win) create team-specific strategies for negotiation planning, creative thinking, self awareness, assertiveness, questioning techniques, and negotiation closing. The one- and two-day interactive onsite workshops are appropriate for professionals in leadership, sales, acquisition, and professional/technical positions.
