HOW TO OBTAIN US:
Purchase of our courses for agency onsite classes can either be made by open market purchase order (PO) under the Simplified Acquisition Threshold, or simply through your Agency Training Officer on a Group SF-182 Training Request/Order form. Training Officers using SF-182 Group training orders are permitted under Treasury regulations to issue a Group SF-182 for training up to $25,000 in value without competition.
Our onsite course pricing is very straight forward and listed on the "Courses and Pricing" page. . Our prices listed are all inclusive, meaning the cost of the instructor, airfare, hotel, are included for up to 25 employees, but our price does NOT include student books. We provide all student materials FREE to the agency to print by email, and that is how we help keep our prices low because we let the agency or students print our course materials at no charge. If agencies don't desire to print our course materials we will be happy to do it for your for a charge of $400 flat rate.
All course certificates are provided by download from our site. Each student successfully passing our course is given a password at the end of the class to download and print their own certificate. For agency onsite courses if your location is not located on a subway or metro or there will be a price add-on for Rental Car rate per day for our instructor of $50 for each day of the course,or a flat fee of $360 for a five day course (includes gas).
IF YOU HAVE ADDITIONAL STUDENTS TO TRAIN. If an agency wants to send more than 25 students to an agency on-site class, there is typically an "over and above charge" beyond the 25 student capacity which shall be billed an extra charge of $250 per additional student and must be added to your credit card, PO (SF 1449) or group training request form (Group SF-182).
