March 10, 2011, update: This is slightly off-topic, but in his Federal Diary yesterday Joe Davidson discussed the importance of training opportunities in the federal service, and specifically in the foreign service. Note the plaintive reference to former Senator George V. Voinovich and also to the recent GAO study of State Department training.
