Public Service (Posted February 20, 2004))
The Academy is participating in a cooperative
research project designed to collect and report on the projected
hiring needs of the federal government for the FY 05 and into
FY 06. A jointly developed questionnaire will be used to gather
data and for conducting structured interviews with designated
agency officials. Data in the CPDF will be reviewed and an
analysis of historical trends and future projections will
be conducted. Agency data collected will focus on human capital
planning and workforce projections. The final report will
describe the methodology used, detailed findings, implications,
conclusions and recommendations.
