The U.S. Constitution for Government Employees is a 20-minute online course that provides the constitutionally mandated training required for all federal government employees under Public Law 108-447, Section 111. It covers the key provisions of the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, and subsequent amendments, and is designed for new hires and existing federal employees who must complete this training annually by September 17 (Constitution Day). The course includes a downloadable certificate of completion.
Public Law 108-447, Section 111, signed in December 2004, requires all federal agencies to provide educational materials on the United States Constitution to new employees upon hire and to all employees each year on September 17, which is designated as Constitution Day and Citizenship Day. The law applies to every federal government employee who takes the oath to support and defend the Constitution. Failure to provide this training puts agencies out of compliance with federal law and can result in audit findings during Office of Personnel Management reviews.
This course provides your agency's employees with a structured overview of the Constitution's articles, the separation of powers, the Bill of Rights, and key amendments that have shaped American governance. The training is designed to be accessible to employees across all federal agencies and grade levels, connecting constitutional principles to the daily responsibilities of public service. Upon completion, employees receive a certificate documenting their compliance with the annual training requirement.
Public Law 108-447, Section 111, enacted in December 2004 as part of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, mandates that each federal agency provide educational and training materials on the United States Constitution to all new employees and to existing employees annually on September 17 (Constitution Day and Citizenship Day). This requirement applies to all executive branch agencies and has been adopted by many legislative and judicial branch offices as well. The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) provides guidance on implementation, and agencies that fail to comply risk findings during compliance audits. While the law does not specify penalties for individual employees, agency heads are responsible for ensuring compliance across their workforce. Many state and local governments have enacted parallel requirements for their own employees.
