The SESCDP is designed to provide a series of developmental experiences for high potential individuals to prepare them to serve in SES positions. These developmental experiences include formal training and seminars, a four-month assignment outside of the participant's home organization/bureau, core learning sessions that focus on the competencies for successful SES-level performance, and working with an executive mentor. All program selectees will participate in the Senior Executive Assessment Program, resulting in a tailored Executive Development Plan that will guide program development experiences. The SESCDP is a rigorous program, and the curriculum must be completed while balancing current day-to-day job assignments.
Duties
Applicant Eligibility Definitions:
Status applicants: are employees serving under career or career-type appointments in the civil service. Status candidates are not entitled to veteran's preference. Participants selected for EEOC's SESCDP who are serving in career or career-type positions will remain employees of their current agencies/organizations, and will retain the grade, series, pay, and status of their current positions, including eligibility for step increases and career ladder promotions.
Non-status applicants: are employees who occupy other than career or career-type appointments within the civil service, e.g., temporary appointments. Participants selected for EEOC's SESCDP who are serving in other than career or career-type appointments will receive an excepted appointment under the Schedule B authority for the duration of the program, which may be extended not to exceed a total of three (3) years.
Responsibilities:
EEOC's SESCDP is designed to provide a series of developmental experiences which include formal courses and seminars, developmental work assignments, and individual mentoring from current SES members. Participation in this year-long SESCDP will require approximately 6 months away from the candidate's position of record for formal SESCDP activities, including time for the development assignment and training sessions. Selected candidates' home organization will be responsible for any travel expenses related to training sessions and travel for the developmental assignment. In addition, tuition costs and travel expenses will be centrally funded for EEOC employees'.
Key Program Features:
- A 12-month program, requiring extensive time away from the position of record
- Senior Executive Assessment Program
- An Executive Development Plan
- Program orientation
- Formal mentoring program with assigned mentors
- A developmental assignment of at least 120 days, outside the participant's organization
- At least 80 hours of executive education; training will be a combination of in person and virtual sessions.
- Leadership focused site visits
- Upon completion of the SESCDP and approval by the Executive Resources Board (ERB), the candidate's Executive Core Qualifications (ECQs) will be reviewed by an Office of Personnel Management (OPM) Qualifications Review Board (QRB) for certification. QRB certification allows for non-competitive placement into SES positions.
