Workshops on How to Write your Candidate Achievement Record for the Certification Program for the Federal Government Procurement and Materiel Management Communities
The Acquired Services and Assets Sector Communities Management Office has developed a free one-day workshop to assist Certification Program candidates in writing their Candidate Achievement Record (CAR). This workshop provides candidates with a better understanding of competencies, how they are used and what is expected via the Competency Reports that make up the CAR. Candidates also have an opportunity to develop draft Competency Reports and receive immediate feedback. Trends show that candidates who take the workshop have a better understanding of the CAR and are better able to meet the requirements of the Review Panel.
Workshops require a minimum of 10 participants (15 participants in the regions) and have a maximum capacity of 20. Below you will find the current schedule for these free CAR Workshops:
