Annual Conflicts-Of-Interest Training
Throughout the year, staff from the Office
of the General Counsel brief NSF employees on conflict-of-interest
rules. NSF
staff (including IPAs and Visiting Scientists) who file financial
disclosure forms are all required to attend this session once a
year. All are welcome!!!!
The Ethics Counselor relies primarily on case studies and NSF
Manual 15 to introduce participants to the criminal conflicts laws;
the basic standards of conduct regulations; specific rules applicable
to NSF staff; and the rules covering proposal handling, recusals,
acceptance of travel expenses, outside employment and activities,
job hunting and acceptance of gifts.
Target Audience
All Program Officers and officials at or above a comparable level are *required* to participate in at least one briefing each calendar year.
