Federal Fraud Prevention Workforce Training Act

This provision directs the Secretary of the Treasury and the Director of the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), in consultation with the Director of the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), to establish and maintain a government-wide training program. This program is designed to prevent fraud and improper payments across all federal agencies and programs.

This section outlines the specific topics that the antifraud training program must cover. These include identifying fraud risks, using various government resources and tools like the GAO's Framework for Managing Fraud Risks, OMB Circular A-123, the Treasury's Anti-Fraud Playbook, NIST Digital Identity Guidelines, data analytics, the Do Not Pay system, and establishing internal controls.

This provision mandates that certain federal employees, including program administrators, financial managers, disbursement certifying officials, auditing officials, and grants managers, must complete the antifraud training. They must complete it within 180 days of appointment or the effective date of the Act, and then at least once every two years thereafter. OPM is tasked with certifying completion and maintaining records.

This provision authorizes the Secretary of the Treasury to make the antifraud training program available at no cost to employees or contractors of state, local, or federally recognized Indian Tribal governments who are responsible for administering federally funded programs. The Secretary may also provide technical assistance to help these entities integrate the program's standards into their own administrative frameworks.
