Managing the Federal Employee Discipline and Performance Process
Target Audience: Executives, Managers, and Supervisors
Length: Two-Day Seminar
Description:
“Managing the Federal Employee Discipline and Performance Process” is our signature course, regularly taught at the Brookings Institution and throughout the country to many agencies in the federal government. Presented in an interactive and entertaining style, we use real-life examples to teach the nuts and bolts of federal personnel law. Our course provides managers and supervisors the tools and strategies needed to handle employee discipline and performance issues, ranging from informal counseling to removal actions with appeals to the Merit Systems Protection Board (MSPB). Managers and supervisors learn how to defend against Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) and Whistleblower Retaliation complaints as well as handle disability issues and employee requests for “reasonable accommodation.” Attendees gain an understanding of their legal rights and responsibilities as well as increased confidence in dealing with difficult employees. All course instructors have more than 25 years of experience with the federal government, including serving in key management positions as well as representing federal agencies in administrative hearings before the MSPB and EEOC.
