Upcoming Best Practices Workshop on FOIA Administrative Appeals

OIP continues its Best Practices Workshop Series on May 29, 2019 with a workshop focused on strategies for a successful FOIA administrative appeal process.  This session will be held at 10:00 am on May 29, 2019 at the Department of Justice’s 2-CON Building (145 N Street, NE).

The workshop on May 29 is open to all agency FOIA professionals and interested personnel.  Registration is required for attendance and you will need a picture ID to enter the building.  Government employees may register for the event through Eventbrite.

For anyone who is unable to join, OIP will add a summary of the best practices discussed to our website. 

OIP launched the Best Practices Workshop series in 2014 as a way to share and leverage successes in FOIA administration across the government.  Each workshop in the series focuses on a specific topical area and includes a panel of representatives who share their success stories and strategies.  The series continues to be an opportunity for professionals at every level of the FOIA process to learn from one another and to leverage the successes of other agencies for their own organizations.
