New Senior Executive Service, Senior Professional, GS-15 & GS-14 Development Programs

The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) launched a new 80-hour training program for GS-14 and GS-15 level employees to prepare for potential entry into the Senior Executive Service (SES). Language in the description of the course seemed to suggest an effort to politicize candidates for SES jobs, emphasizing how to "drive the unusually expansive and transformative agenda the American people elected President Trump to accomplish" and training on "President Trump’s Executive Orders and other Executive Branch priorities."
