<p class="MsoNormal">We have posted the April OSPS Training News: <a href="http://go.usa.gov/267w">
http://go.usa.gov/267w</a> This issue includes details about the April 17 forum agenda and introductory information about the Payroll eProjects. Please note, because we have guest presenters, we do not currently plan to offer the OregonConnect option.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This is the last time that I will be responsible for the Training News. I want to take this opportunity to say thank you to all of you who helped “the new kid on the block” over the years I have been in OSPS. I was successful because central
 DAS and agency payroll, HR and accounting staff were willing to share information, give feedback and suggestions, collaborate and be patient with me as I learned the system and payroll. If this is like my other experiences with governmental agencies, our paths
 may cross again! Take care!<o:p></o:p></p>
