In recent years, the Court Education Division (CED) of the Federal Judicial Center has developed a number of innovative, cost-effective training methods that take education directly to court support staff and eliminate or greatly reduce the cost of participant travel and lodging, the largest expense of traditional national and regional workshops. |

| Abstract: |
CED's packaged programs are usually designed by curriculum development specialists on the Center staff. Packages include instructor guidelines, lesson plans, overhead transparencies, and written materials. They may also include a video component. Other in-district programs include the Leadership Development Program and in-district orientations. CED also uses computer-assisted training by placing interactive learning materials on the electronic bulletin board system sponsored by the Automation User's Group of the Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts. Specific training packages and projects have focused on pretrial supervision, leadership development, executive team development, and financial investigation skills. All these programs can reduce training costs and assist increasing numbers of court support personnel to develop skills and design projects that help courts achieve a broad range of cost savings.
