GSA’s Federal Acquisition Service is offering a new training and exhibition event May 10-11 in Huntsville, Ala., geared toward federal and military personnel and contractors.
GSA said the Federal Acquisition Training Symposium “will provide acquisition training on GSA tools, products and services tailored to federal acquisition professionals who are responsible for mission-critical acquisition spending. This debut event will cover multiple new government-wide initiatives that are transforming the federal acquisition space, as well as create a forum for collaboration between the federal acquisition community and industry. Participation in the training event will be free for all federal attendees.”
The announcement added that “since we moved away from hosting GSA Expo a few years ago, we’ve consistently heard from federal agencies and our industry partners that the valuable training and collaboration opportunities provided by GSA training events are still very much needed. As the government makes major changes to the federal procurement landscape through category management, GSA is developing new tools and resources to support this community of professionals. We are committed to deploying FAS’s acquisition expertise to lead this change and help the government act and buy as one.”
Registration is through the GSA site.
