New FAI Website

The Federal Acquisition Institute Training Application System (FAITAS) website is getting a face-lift and that is a good thing. Don't get me wrong, it wasn't horrible by any stretch of the imagination, or at least much worse is available. The problem is that they really do have a mountain of good content, but it is buried beneath layers of junk. Many of the classes that they offer are free to federal employees. I've taken a few, which is why I'm on their mailing list.

For me, I always had a hard time seeing where FAI stopped and where DAU started. I don't have anything against the DAU content, it's just that some of it was not as relevant to me since I'm not in that space. Anyway, if the FAITAS site is good, I hope that FAI can focus on ACMIS next. The Acquisition Career Management Information System was built just a few years ago, and it is not usable. I don't even bother trying anymore, and my Agency tracks our certifications internally now.
