“Although it garners less attention than formal training methods, informal learning may be the true foundation of organizational knowledge. Employees learn only about a fifth of their jobs via formal training, according to the Institute for Research on Learning (Cross, 2006). The rest is gleaned through other means of learning.”

I liked how the instructor could relate stories from experience to the topics he discussed. It helped with the clarification of the material he presented. He is very good at "teaching." I would recommend this class.
—Jill, Senior Contract Manager
The instructor was phenomenal. Great instruction amplified by relevant and varied experience, and he was engaging. Would definitely like to take a course with FPS again.
—Hope, Director of Contracts
Federal Publications offerings are some of the best I have ever attended. I attended my first in DC, the Basics of Government Contracting, back in the early 1990s. Fond memories!
