Training and Management Assistance Viewpoint Survey
Across the Federal Government budgets are being cut from every corner one can imagine.  From changes to FERS, such as FERS-RAE or FERS-FRAE to reductions in the quantity of our federal workforce these budget constraints are very real and becoming more and more obvious almost every day. If organizations do not invest in their workforce, they lose the ability to compete in industry and across the globe and the Federal Employee Viewpoint Survey can help you share your views and thoughts with the OPM and other decision makers alike.
The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) realizes that agencies’ budgets cannot support all the training needs so critical to high job performance. OPM holds the reigns and has the responsibility for ensuring the effective recruitment, hiring and retention of the best talent the world has to offer. As such the Training and Management Assistance (TMA) program offers a way of customizing human capital and training services to all agencies and the Viewpoint Survey can help the OPM understand what you believe is important.
TMA must be a high priority for federal and postal employees. We expect superior customer service from Federal and Postal employees. I expect service that is above reproach on Monday, then again on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. This cannot be achieved if strong guidelines are not a constant in bringing training programs to the Federal and Postal workforce.
We talked about the Federal Employee Viewpoint Survey in another post.  The Viewpoint Survey is the opportune time for Federal and Postal employees to tell their agencies how critical training is to them. Let the 2014 Federal Employee Survey speak to what Federal and Postal employees feel they need to get the jobs done.
P. S. Always Remember to Share What You Know.
