SUBJECT:  Ethics Training Workshops - Denver, CO 


     The Office of Government Ethics (OGE) will conduct two identical 
four-hour training workshops in Denver, CO on January 16 and 
January 17, 1997.  These training workshops are formatted to challenge 
experienced ethics practitioners with exercises that go beyond mere case
studies.  

     All OGE workshops are FREE to all agencies, however, advanced 
registration is required.  To register, please fax a completed
registration form (attached) for the session of your choice to OGE
by Thursday, January 9, 1997.  Registration is handled on a
first-come basis and class size is limited to 40 participants per
workshop.  NO TELEPHONE REGISTRATIONS WILL BE ACCEPTED.  Please 
fax completed registration forms to:

               Sheila Powers
               Conference and Training Coordinator 
               FAX Number:  202-208-8039 or 8038

OGE will confirm each student's registration by return fax no later 
than one week prior to the requested workshop.

     Because you are our primary means for advertising these
workshops, please circulate this memorandum and the attached
registration forms among your ethics officials in the surrounding
Denver area as soon as possible.

     Please note that these training workshops are not intended to
be used by agencies in fulfilling the annual ethics training requirement.

     For your planning purposes, OGE will offer identical training  
workshops in Washington, DC and other cities throughout this fiscal
year.  Once final arrangements are completed on cities and
dates, training announcements will be disseminated to all DAEO's.
