2015 LULAC FTIP Registration Form - General

The League of United Latin American Citizens (LULAC) will be hosting its third annual Federal Training Institute Partnership (FTIP) Tuesday, September 22 through Thursday September 23, 2015 in NIH Natcher Convention Center, Bethesda, MD metro area. This event is free of charge to all Federal employees regardless of grade and position. FTIP’s goal is to develop a diverse pool of leaders for the future.

The FTIP was created in May 2013 by LULAC and a cadre of Federal employees who served or were currently serving in Federal leadership positions. The FTIP was born out of an ongoing need to train Federal employees during a period of budgetary constraints and to ensure diversity in the federal workforce of our Nation. LULAC understands that budget cuts have impacted training and development opportunities in many Federal agencies. However, LULAC believes the Federal government workforce needs to represent the population it serves. Therefore, it is critical that we continue addressing the challenges that many Federal agencies may have in developing and retaining a diverse population, particularly Hispanics, within their agencies. In an effort to show our continued support and assist Federal agencies in addressing the aforementioned issues, we are working with Federal agencies, private consultants and National Council of Hispanic Employment Program Managers (NCHEPM) to ensure we continue developing federal employees for greater career opportunities through the FTIP.

The FTIP provides an intensive and structured career-development program for government employees. The FTIP offers plenary sessions, workshops and executive coaching sessions. It is designed to enable government employees at all levels to enhance their skills and develop Executive Core Qualifications skills required for leadership positions and entry into the Senior Executive Service.

Employees that wish to attend the FTIP must pre-register. Employees are responsible for securing authorization to attend from their respective managers before registering. Please note that no meals will be provided at this event.
