"Very valuable course." staff member, U.S. Marshals

"It separated the 'wheat from the chaff' for me. I only have a
certain amount of time and this has helped me understand what's
important, and conversely, what is less important."
staff member, U.S. Marshals Service
How a Bill Becomes A Law

power and influence. Our instructors examine the political,
