Most of the online courses on the FSA Training Center are specific to an award year. This allows you to complete trainings each award year to keep your understanding of the topics current. Your Record of Learning and Certificates of Completion reflect your completion of the trainings for each award year.
We will be removing training courses specific to the 2024–25 award year on June 27 and replacing them with courses for the 2025–26 award year on June 30. What does this mean for you?
If you are in the middle of FSA Basic Training for New Staff or any one of the Learning Tracks, please finish your work by June 27. Alternatively, you can choose to not complete the 2024–25 training and instead wait for the release of the 2025–26 training. We update our content each year to incorporate new guidance and refresh the learning activities!
If you are enrolled in the FSA Fundamentals Training Series, you have a couple of options.
- You can complete the 2024–25 FSA Fundamentals Online course by June 27. We will allow you to enroll in a 2025–26 FSA Fundamentals Virtual Workshop in the upcoming cycle with the completion of the previous year’s online course. Dates for these instructor-led workshop for the next year will be announced after June 30.
- Alternatively, if you will not be able to complete the 2024–25 online course by June 27, you can stop work now and instead wait until June 30 to start again with the newly released 2025–26 FSA Fundamentals Online course.
We do not have the ability to carry over completion progress from one year’s course to another. You will be required to start 2025–26 courses from the beginning.
If you have any questions about your own training situation and completion of courses, please send an email to helpdesk.fsatraining@ed.gov so we can advise you.
