You’ve gone through the interactive process and come up with a reasonable accommodation that both you and the employee think will be effective. Are you done? Not even close. And what happens if a new supervisor comes in and wants to change a long-standing accommodation?
Over time, certain accommodations will still be effective – and some may lose their effectiveness. They may no longer be needed. The nature of the work might change. Or, perhaps, a more effective accommodation has become available. It’s more important than ever for agencies to be aware of the benefits and drawbacks of revisiting existing accommodations.
Is there any flexibility with course durations for Agency Direct training?
Yes. 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.
In what format is this class held?
The 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.
CLE 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.

Most Federal agencies settle employment disputes — whether they are initiated as grievances, EEO complaints, or appeals of agency disciplinary actions. While it’s common to assume that settlement means the agency has a flaw in its case, it has no direct tie to liability or admissions of wrongdoing. Often, it’s…

By Deborah J. Hopkins, July 7, 2026 It’s rare we at FELTG comment on proposed regulations – after all, proposed regulations are regularly changed, sometimes significantly based on public comment, before becoming final. It’s usually not worth getting all spun up over something that’s only at the proposal stage. That…

Can I attend Virtual Training from my government computer?
FELTG uses Zoom to broadcast our Virtual Training Institute events. Many government computers and systems allow Zoom access. If for some reason your firewall will not allow access, you’re welcome to use your personal email address to register, and to attend the sessions from your personal device.
Can I share my access link with co-workers?
No. Registration for each event is per individual, and access links may not be shared. Each link may only be used by one person.
Can I register a teleworker?
Each event is individual registration, so the cost is the same whether the person is teleworking or in an agency facility.
How do I receive a group rate discount?
Group rates are available for agencies registering 10 or more individuals. Group discounts end the same day as early bird registration. Please see the event description for exact details.
