Presented by Robert Erbe Esq.

Failure to take proper action, at the proper time, could mean years of headaches for your agency — not to mention a significant amount of back pay and attorney’s fees. Avoid it all with guidance from attorney Robert Erbe, an expert in MSPB practice and procedure.

Erbe will navigate you through the complex maze of laws, regulations and case law so you know how to properly terminate probationary employees — starting with the all-important step of determining whether an individual is an “employee” under Title 5 entitled to full protections under the Civil Service Reform Act. Then, you’ll learn the proper ways to:

• Identify how the different appointment authorities affect how long your agency has to evaluate an individual
• Determine when an individual can tack on prior federal service for completion of the probationary period
• Evaluate whether an individual is serving in a “same or similar position”
• Analyze appointments under the Veterans Recruitment Act and the Pathways Program
• And more
