WHY DO WE HAVE SO MANY CLIENTS? The Acquisition Institute, Inc. has trained thousands of  employees, so whether you have us provide training onsite or have us do it in our modern, quality training center (Northern Virginia Training campus), you get more bang for your buck. Our COR training  may be counted toward the accumulation of Continuous Learning Points (CLP) credits.  Students often ask: "Is this training ACE certified, or do I need something other than CLP credit?" The answer is found in the Office of Federal Procurement Policy (OFPP) in its latest memo (dated Sept 6, 2011) which only requires (non-DOD) students (meaning anyone that is not in DOD) to obtain Continuous Learning Points (CLP) hours that meets the core competencies for training.  That said, federal employees can attend any commercial offeror or DAU/FAI.  Although it is recommended by OFPP that training be in a "classroom setting" it is not mandatory, therefore Distance Learning can be appropriate.
