This course is for all federal civilian agency employees who need to know the regulations on Temporary Duty (TDY) travel established by the Federal Travel Regulations (FTR), but not Permanent Change of Station (PCS) travel. You learn from expert faculty how to avoid costly mistakes, adhere to the current FTR and save your agency travel money. To learn how to apply both TDY and PCS allowances under the FTR, see our companion course: Travel Regulations for Non-Defense Agencies, FTR (FINC7103D).
