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 is only offered as an open enrollment.
If you received Domestic, Foreign, and Sponsored Travel training in the past two-three years, this is the refresher you need for Foreign/Sponsored travel. In this one-day travel refresher, existing NIH travel planners and travel approving officials (including AOs) will receive a review of the rules and regulations for preparing travel for federal employee foreign and sponsored travel. This is a hands-on class and training will allow time for discussion to enhance each participant's knowledge, so please bring questions for the instructor.
Note: This class is intended for current CGE Travel System users. Participants should complete the following prerequisites in order to take this class: Domestic Travel, Foreign Travel, and Sponsored Travel. Participants may receive an exemption for one of the prerequisites—Foreign Travel or Sponsored Travel—if they do not coordinate that specific travel in their IC.
