A review of the Upward nobility prcgram in six
Departments and agencies was made to see how much progress has
been made in implementing these programs. Pclicies, guidance,
procedures, and program evaluation were examined.
Fir-dings/Conclusions: Since 1974, the Civil Service Commission
has taken many actions to improve program efforts throughout the
Federal Government. However, GAO believes additional
improvements can be made by giving departments and agencies
detailed guidance on ccnducting the analyses needed to justify
training agreements and on improving the accuracy and
completeness of reported Upward Mobility program costs through
various controls. Adoption of these suggesticns would strengthen
the Federal Governmentfs Upw.rd Nobility effc:ts. (DJM)](ViewImageLocal?handle=hein.gao/gaobaabzp0001&div=1&collection=&method=preview&ext=.png&size=3)
