Federal Acquisition Certification in Contracting Program
Issued By: OMB - Effective Date: 01.30.2006, PDF
Abstract: In April 2005, the Office of Federal Procurement Policy (OFPP) published Policy Letter 05-01, Developing and Managing the Acquisition Workforce, which required the Federal Acquisition Institute (FAI) to develop, and the Chief Acquisition Officers Council (CAOC) to approve, a certification program for contracting professionals in civilian agencies that reflects common standards. The goal of the certification program is to standardize the education, training, and experience requirements for contracting professionals, which will improve workforce competencies and increase career opportunities. The attached Federal Acquisition Certification in Contracting Program was approved by the CAOC in December 2005.
