Are there any attempts being made to get this training provided in other
locations across the country?  It seems wasteful to have probably hundreds
of Research Administrators/staff incurring the cost to travel to Rockville,
M.D. for 1/2 day worth of training.  Or am I missing something!!

Thanks,

Deb

Subject: Payment Management System User Training Classes

The Division of Payment Management (DPM) will offer Payment Management
System User training classes for grant recipient organizations on Thursday,
June 14 and Thursday, July 19. Classes will be held at the DPM offices in
Rockville, MD.  There will be a morning and afternoon class each day.
Morning classes will run from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon.  Afternoon classes
will run from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m.  Should the requests for training
warrant, additional classes will be considered.

Please register for the training classes by sending an e-mail to
xxxxxx@psc.gov not later than June 1, 2001.  Classes will be filled on a
first come, first served basis.  Upon registration, we will send you
information on directions to the DPM offices and local accommodations. Grant
recipients will be responsible for all travel, lodging, and subsistence
costs.

Sessions will feature "hands-on" training on system access, completing a
payment request, performing account inquiries, requesting reports, and
completing the PSC 272 Federal Cash Transaction Report.  Time will be
provided for questions, individual instruction, and meeting time with DPM
Account Representatives.

The grant recipient training classes conducted on April 26 were a great
success.  One important recommendation coming out of those classes was that
attendees should insure they bring their Payment Management System user name
and passwords to the class.  This will save class time and insure proper
system access.

If the DPM staff can be of further assistance, please do not hesitate to
contact us.  We look forward to meeting and working with you.
