SUBJECT: Ethics Workshops: Norfolk, VA, May 4-5, 1998
The U.S. Office of Government Ethics (OGE) will conduct three
different training workshops in Norfolk, Virginia, May 4-5, 1998.
Ethics officials are invited to attend any or all of the scheduled
workshops. The workshop titles, dates and times are listed below:
OGE Form 450 Review Course 05/04/98 9:00 a.m. - 12:30 p.m.

Post Employment 05/05/98 9:00 a.m. - 12:00 noon
The OGE Form 450 Review Course is designed for ethics officials who
have responsibility for reviewing the OGE Form 450 and advising employees
about financial disclosure.
The Misuse of Position course provides a broad overview of Subpart G
and includes a four-step approach to determine whether proposed actions
are prohibited by the misuse subpart.
The Post-Employment workshop will cover the post-employment statute,
18 U.S.C. § 207, and will include student exercises and group discussion.
All workshops are offered FREE to each agency. However, advance
registration is required. Each person planning to attend MUST register by
faxing a completed registration form to OGE by Monday, April 27, 1998.
Registration will be handled on a first-come basis and each workshop is
limited to 35 participants. NO TELEPHONE REGISTRATIONS WILL BE ACCEPTED.
Registration forms are attached. Please fax completed registration forms
to:
Sheila Powers
Training Coordinator
FAX Number: 202-208-8039 (or 8038)
OGE will confirm each student's registration by return fax prior to
the date of the workshop. Due to the large volume of registrations, we
ask that registrants NOT follow up on confirmations.
Because you are our primary means for advertising workshops, please
circulate this memorandum with its attachments among your ethics officials
as soon as possible.
OGE plans to conduct additional ethics training in the following
cities in FY 1998:
Washington, DC (several courses)
