+ MD-715 Project (Project Facilitator, Karen Weaver at 6-0034)
+ Monthly Procurement Training Forums (Mark your calender!)--A
sub-team from the Procurement Learning Group has successfully planned and
coordinated Monthly Procurement Forums for the entire GSFC procurement community.
These forums will be a procurement learning tool and a means to disseminate
information. Each procurement organization will have an opportunity to host
a forum, and the sub-team is available for support. In fact, a list of topic
ideas has already been generated and topics will continue to be added as
the need arises. Forum topics will include everything from policy updates,
FAR and NASA FAR changes, training and information for automated systems,
Headquarters and Self-Assessment Survey results, lessons learned, and creative
solutions to employee awards/recognition, new employee introductions,
Professional Intern Program updates, and any relevant topics for our community
and others. Attendance is required and Continuous Learning Points will be
earned. The first forum will be held January 9 in the Building 3 Auditorium
at 10-11 with video conferencing for Wallops and the IV&V. Below are
the tentative dates for the remainder of 2008 (location and time for all
dates is Building 3 Auditorium from 10-11 a.m..): February 13, March 12,
April 15, May 14, June 11, July 9, August 13, September 10, October 8, November
5, and December 10. Click
