SUMMARY:5 Keys to Implementing and Managing a Successful Performance Demonstration Period
DESCRIPTION:Every agency has employees who struggle with performance\, but there is a reliable solution for addressing unacceptable performance. \nA successful Performance Demonstrate Period (DP) will either lead to sustained improved performance or a defensible performance-based removal or demotion. This fast-paced class guides you through the critical steps to reaching that goal. \nLearning objectives\n\nCreate a step-by-step plan for managing a DP.\nIdentify what pre-DP documentation is required.\nAddress a post-DP drop in performance.\n\nEvent FAQs\nIs there any flexibility with course durations for Agency Direct training?  \nYes. Many agencies have requested that full-day courses be taught over two half-days to ensure maximum engagement\, especially when the course is being taught virtually. Any course can be spread out over multiple days or condensed into shorter sessions. And shorter classes can often be combined to build longer courses covering more topics. We’ll be happy to discuss the options that are most convenient to you. \nIn what format is this class held? \nThe class may be held onsite at an agency location\, or as a live virtual event. Virtual events are generally held using your agency’s platform (Zoom\, WebEx\, Teams\, etc.). In certain situations where FELTG hosts\, the event will be held on Zoom or Teams. \nCan I earn CLE credits for this class?\nCLE applications are the responsibility of each attendee; FELTG does not apply for the credits on behalf of attendees. If you are seeking CLE credit\, you may use the materials provided by FELTG in submission to your state bar. You may also request a certificate of completion which will contain the number of training hours attended.

SUMMARY:Mandatory Permissive Bargaining: What Does That Really Mean?
DESCRIPTION:Executive Order 14003 rescinded limitations on collective bargaining and instructed agency leaders that they “shall elect to negotiate over the subjects set forth in 5 USC 7106(b)(1) and shall instruct subordinates to do the same.” How should this be interpreted? \nShall seems to be the critical word here.  In this training\, we’ll answer the following questions: How is this EO different from the similar Clinton-era EO? How do you determine whether a union proposal is a USC 7206(b)(1) subject? Is insisting to impasse a permissive item an unfair labor practice? \nLearning objectives\n\nDetermine best practices in dealing with negotiability determinations in light of EO 14003.\nDevelop effective negotiation strategies.\nImplement communication strategies to ensure mission is not adversely impacted by labor negotiations.\n\nEvent FAQs\nIs there any flexibility with course durations for Agency Direct training?  \nYes. Many agencies have requested that full-day courses be taught over two half-days to ensure maximum engagement\, especially when the course is being taught virtually. Any course can be spread out over multiple days or condensed into shorter sessions.

SUMMARY:Winning EEO Cases Through Summary Judgment
DESCRIPTION:Unlike the MSPB\, the EEOC allows parties to file motions for summary judgment\, potentially eliminating the need for a time-consuming\, expensive\, and risky hearing. Yet\, many agencies fail to take advantage of this opportunity. \nThis training will explain the importance of the Report of Investigation and thorough discovery\, the benefits of motions for summary judgment (MSJs)\, and what to include in the MSJ to best represent your client and case. \nLearning objectives\n\nIdentify when to file a motion for summary judgment.\nOrganize for the motion.\nDraft an effective motion that accurately states the case for the judge.\n\nEvent FAQs\nIs there any flexibility with course durations for Agency Direct training?  \nYes. Many agencies have requested that full-day courses be taught over two half-days to ensure maximum engagement\, especially when the course is being taught virtually. Any course can be spread out over multiple days or condensed into shorter sessions. And shorter classes can often be combined to build longer courses covering more topics. We’ll be happy to discuss the options that are most convenient to you. \nIn what format is this class held? \nThe class may be held onsite at an agency location\, or as a live virtual event. Virtual events are generally held using your agency’s platform (Zoom\, WebEx\, Teams\, etc.). In certain situations where FELTG hosts\, the event will be held on Zoom or Teams. \nCan I earn CLE credits for this class?\nCLE applications are the responsibility of each attendee; FELTG does not apply for the credits on behalf of attendees. If you are seeking CLE credit\, you may use the materials provided by FELTG in submission to your state bar. You may also request a certificate of completion which will contain the number of training hours attended.

SUMMARY:These are the Cases You Really Should Settle
DESCRIPTION:We get it. You don’t want to look like you did something wrong. But here’s the thing: Settling a case does not mean there were flaws in your case\, nor is it an admittance of liability or wrongdoing. \nThis training will explain why so many disputes are settled and why it’s advantageous to both parties. Most importantly\, it will help you identify the cases that should (and maybe shouldn’t) be settled\, as well as what is needed to craft an effective and legally enforceable settlement agreement. \nLearning objectives\n\nRecognize cases that should be settled.\nDiscuss the roles and responsibilities of individuals involved in settlement discussions.\nIdentify the benefits of settling a dispute through agreement.\n\nEvent FAQs\nIs there any flexibility with course durations for Agency Direct training?  \nYes.

SUMMARY:What Exactly is Undue Hardship Anymore?
DESCRIPTION:The Supreme Court upended decades of precedent in its unanimous 2023 decision Groff v. DeJoy. It’s a big change for the concept of undue hardship in religious accommodation\, according to some experts – but not not to others. Plus\, there’s also an undue hardship standard in disability accommodation cases and pregnancy accommodation cases\, and the standard differs slightly in each type of case. \nThis class will explain the impact of the Groff decision\, deconstruct the distinctions between undue hardship in accommodations for disability\, pregnancy\, and religion\, and differentiate the legal ramifications of each. \nLearning objectives\n\nUnderstand how an agency can prove undue hardship – and how it cannot.\nDescribe the differences between undue hardship for religious\, disability\, and pregnancy accommodations.\nHandle employees’ requests to be excused from performing certain job tasks because of religious reasons.\n\nEvent FAQs\nIs there any flexibility with course durations for Agency Direct training?  \nYes. Many agencies have requested that full-day courses be taught over two half-days to ensure maximum engagement\, especially when the course is being taught virtually.
