The goal for the Training Data Feed is to securely acquire training data for Federal civilian employees. The collection of training data supports OPM's Government-wide reporting responsibilities and provides valuable input into the evaluation of human capital programs at numerous levels of Government. Agencies are responsible for ensuring that the data reported to OPM via the Training Data Feed is accurate and complete. OPM's authority to require Federal agencies to report training data can be found in Title 5 United States Code, Chapter 4107 and part 410 of Title 5, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR). Federal agencies must report the training data specidied in this guide for each employee and establish a schedule of records to be maintained in accordance with regulations promulgated by the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) and the General Service Administration (GSA). Additional authorities that require Federal agencies to report data can be found in 5 CFR part 293.
