How to Apply for a Course
All registration requests must be submitted via the Federal Acquisition Institute Training Application System (FAITAS).
Steps to access the FAITAS Web site:
1. On the www.fai.gov Web site, find the link to FAITAS. At the bottom of the FAITAS Web site, enter your Social Security Number (SSN) and Date of Birth (DOB), then select logon. Note that FAITAS is a secure site, so your personal information is kept confidential.
2. If you are a first-time student at FAITAS, please complete your online training profile, which includes address, email, phone, emergency contact and supervisor information. Please be sure that your email address and your supervisor's email address are entered correctly. Incorrect email addresses will cause delays in processing your application and application status information.
3. Select the course for which you are trying to apply--online or classroom, from FAI or DAU--and use the drop down menu to select the specific course desired (e.g., CON 100, CON 210).
4. Select the desired location on the highlighted area.
5. Select the desired class by clicking on the course number (e.g., 001, 002).
*Please note that the availability column does not take into account applications which are currently being processed.
6. Select the submit button at the bottom of the page.
7. Once you submit the application, an email will be sent to the supervisor indicated in your profile requesting approval. Your training profile will include the status of your application.
8. You will be notified again when the supervisor takes action on the application. If the application is approved, the application will then be forwarded to the FAI Registrar for processing.
9. Once the application is processed by the FAI Registrar, you will receive an email indicating the status of your application. The email will indicate one of the following:
Approved: You are "enrolled" in the class.
Disapproved: You were "not enrolled" in the class with a reason given.
Waitlisted: You were "placed on a wait list", either because the class is full or because your application must be processed on a space available basis.
