Thursday, April 9th Meeting

Our April 9th meeting will feature Steve Epstein, who left the DoD Standards of Conduct Office two years ago and is now the Ethics and Compliance Leader for the PricewaterhouseCoopers Federal Practice.  With a presentation entitled, "Contractors in the Workplace: Things Your Employees Are Not Telling You," Steve returns to the IEC to share his surprising, humorous, and sometimes disturbing discoveries about the interaction between contractor and Federal employees in the Federal workplace.   In his new role Steve says that he's discovering things that "I didn't know that I didn't know, when I was in DoD, because the DoD employees never told me about them."  This material provides feedback about old concerns and new risks – topics for you to consider incorporating into this year's ethics training.   

As usual, we will meet from 12:15-1:30 in the OTS auditorium and, as always, individuals who are on the IEC roster need not pre-register for this meeting.  Ethics officials who are not on our roster but who wish to attend can pre-register by contacting Patrick.Carney@fcc.gov not later than Thursday, April 2nd.  Those who are neither on the IEC roster nor pre-registered can still be admitted by showing a Government ID to OTS Security personnel.
