Here is a recap of updates to your CLIP dashboard in FAI CSOD that relate to the 2024–2026 continuous learning period.  

On May 1, 2024, the new common continuous learning period (CLP) starts, and workforce members will have two CLIP dashboards to view in FAI CSOD:

One CLIP dashboard that displays the 2022–2024 common CLP and your previous CLP status.

A new CLIP dashboard for the 2024–2026 common CLP that displays your current CLP status. 

Easy Navigation: Users can easily toggle between the two dashboards. When accessing the CLIP the previous dashboard will appear first. Starting on Oct. 1, 2024, the 2024–2026 dashboard will be the default display.

No More Renewal Requests: There will be no requirement to submit renewal requests (formerly known as achievement requests). 

Download for Documentation: Users should download a copy of their CLIP dashboard as evidence of good standing for FAC-COR delegations and/or warrant assignments. Click the download button on your CLIP dashboard.

As a Reminder: All Federal Acquisition Certification holders must fulfill the two-year continuous learning point requirements by April 30, 2024. If you checked your CLIP dashboard and you still need CLPs: 

• You have until April 30, 2024 to take training in FAI CSOD for this 2022–2024 common period.
• You can also request CLPs for external training or CL activities. 
• Reach out to your managers, acquisition career managers, or small agency representatives to get assistance.
• Not sure of your status? Check your CLIP dashboard in FAI CSOD.

Note: Training taken in FAI CSOD starting on May 1, 2024 will earn CLPs in the 2024–2026 common period.
