Save the date! Federal Acquisition Certification (FAC) Continuous Learning (CL) restarts on May 1, 2022! Please take a few minutes to watch our recent video on The New Common CL Period, as well as our CL Period Frequently Asked Questions video. Both will help you understand the recent changes announced in Acquisition Flash 2022-01. All FAC-C, FAC-P/PM and FAC-COR certification holders in a certified status will now have until April 30, 2024 to complete their CL requirements. 

The Continuous Learning Individual Progress dashboard will be available on May 1, 2022. You will be able to monitor your CL progress for all your certification(s). Users will also be able to submit external CL activity requests to record CL activities that occur outside of FAI CSOD for the new period.  

Go to the FAI.gov CLIP information page for steps to get ready.

If you need help accessing FAI Cornerstone OnDemand you can watch this video. 

As a reminder, CL activities are a critical component of all acquisition workforce professionals' lifelong learning. We look forward to working with you throughout this new CL cycle! For questions, email contact@fai.gov.
