Desktop Guide for Authorizing Officials and Certifying Officers CHAPTER 4: TRAINING FOR AUTHORIZING OFFICIALS AND CERTIFYING OFFICERS If you are an AO for your organization, it is very likely that you serve as the CO as well. Therefore, both AOs and COs must adhere to the required and recommended training. CO training should include initial training and annual refresher training. If you are a supervisor of a CO, you are responsible for ensuring that subordinate COs complete their required training. Supervisors should periodically review the performance of subordinates to ensure compliance with regulations and policies, including local standard operating procedures. 4.1 Required Training Within two weeks of appointment as a CO, and before certifying any documents, you must complete a training course as defined in Certifying Officer Legislation (COL) Public Law 104-106. You should then provide a printed copy of the course completion certificate to your supervisor. Your supervisor will identify which courses you must complete to satisfy the training requirement. Training that satisfies the COL requirement is located on: • Defense Finance and Accounting Service (DFAS) Web site: Certifying Officer Legislation (COL) Training http://www.dfas.mil/fastrac/coltraining.html • Field Management Distributed Learning Center: Many classes are available. https:// fm.csd.disa.mil/kc/login/login.asp?kc_ident=kc0014&blnAccess=TRUE • Travel Explorer (TraX): Training for Accountable Officials and Certifying Officers (TAOCO) https://www.defensetravel.dod.mil/Passport.
