The USALearning Program is operated out of OPM, and is part of HR Solutions, in the Center for Leadership Development (CLD). The Program Office offers a wide range of e-Learning products and services, as well as customizable learning management system implementations at discounted rates.

The purpose of the Program is to leverage simplified acquisition processes and allow agencies to expeditiously acquire a myriad of support services via Intra/Interagency Agreements under the authority of the Revolving Fund (5 USC 1304(e)).

We work with agencies to help them understand the importance of sharing knowledge of agency missions, goals, and values across all organizational lines. We help agencies realize the full potential of their employees by helping them develop processes to share knowledge throughout organizations by establishing and managing a central content database for secure access to Government off the Shelf (GOTS) content use and application.
