Overview

This course is a fast-paced interactive seminar that examines the organization, content, policy and procedures of the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) as it applies to Federal acquisition. It is designed for new professionals in both government and industry, as well as those who want to build familiarity with, or update themselves on, the Federal Government’s regulatory system. Those who participate actively in the contract administration process will receive the most direct benefit, but anyone who is a player in government contracting needs to have a basic understanding of the Government's guiding "rulebook." The course includes a review of the topical divisions of the FAR and exercises for participants to practice analyzing FAR-centered contracting issues. Recordings All sessions are recorded and available for one year.

This course may also be eligible for the following credits through The Public Contracting Institute

  • 12 CLEs
  • 12 CLPs
  • 14.4 CPEs
