AS II.C: Recruitment and Training of Attorneys

Enhance recruitment and training of attorneys.

Other Information:

The attorneys in OLA are committed to developing their professional skills. To achieve this goal each attorney has implemented an individual development plan (IDP), identifying a course of continuing education that is reevaluated every 18 months. Included in the IDPs are participation in intra-governmental details; continuing legal education courses in the areas of labor and employment law, and ethics; courses at the National Judicial College; and active participation in professional associations. Strategy: OLA will continue to refine its training and development program. Further, OLA will continue to engage in career and skill planning with all OLA staff. Objective: The Board is committed to implementing and maintaining concise, relevant reference materials that are readily available to the public and which reduce the number of man-hours used to research and respond to inquiries. Strategy: OLA will conduct semi-annual reviews of the Representation Manual and web site, upgrading where appropriate. Objective: Maintain continuous industry and agency communication at a level that provides early preparation for Presidential Emergency Board management. Strategy: The Board will encourage attendance at industry conferences, ABA meetings, and other events related to the airline and railroad industries.
