The Briefing for New SES Members provides an overview of executive branch priorities and a unique opportunity to interact with a broad range of policy-makers. Key administration officials provide current insights and information on domestic and foreign policy issues. The program concludes with a Judge administering the oath of office.

Please indicate on your briefing registration form if you are planning to stay for the reception. We are happy to provide interpreters, special diet, and transportation for people with disabilities, but we must know of and prepare for your needs in advance. We highly recommend using the subway, as commercial parking in the surrounding area is expensive and limited. To use the Metrorail, take the Blue or Orange line to Federal Triangle Station. As you exit the station, the Reagan Building is located at the top of the escalator.
