Important Information from the NIH Training Center
It is our honor to serve you. Please note that while our scheduled FY 25 classes are available for registration in our course catalog, many classes will only proceed when HHS lifts the current procurement hold on external purchases. In the meantime, NIHTC is receiving registrations as approved by IC final approvers. As always, NIHTC will refund tuition for any classes that we cancel. If you have questions about your IC’s budget, we advise that you consult with your IC leadership to abide by their budgetary guidance.
This course provides students with a full review of the Contracting Officer Reprentatives (COR) duties and responsibilities and is intended for students who have already obtained a COR certification. It emphasizes enhancement of skills in contract preparation, formation, appropriations law, CPARS and administration through discussion and participation in exercises. Experience gained through contract administration and best practices will be highlighted. Students will participate in group role-playing exercises and present their findings and solutions.
This class satisfies your requirement for COR I and II Recertification. It also meets most of the level III requirements except for the ethics training.
Please contact the Acquisition Career Program for more guidance on specific HHS certification requirements for CORs: FAC-COR@mail.nih.gov
