Celebrating Public Service Recognition Week 2018

Written by: Management Concepts

Celebrating Public Service Recognition Week 2018 icon

This week (May 6-12, 2018) is Public Service Recognition Week and Management Concepts is excited to show our appreciation for our government leaders and public servants!

The celebration began in 1985 and is organized annually by the Public Employees Roundtable (PER) and its member organizations to honor the men and women who serve our nation as federal, state, county and local government employees.

Management Concepts is celebrating this year by sharing red, white, and blue cupcakes as well as fruit to our students between 10am and 2pm in the DC and Tyson’s centers. We were joined by our strategic partners, Federally Employed Women, Blacks in Government, Training Officers Consortium and the Association of Government Accountants.

There are additional events for Public Service Recognition Week occurring in Washington, D.C. including the sixth annual Public Service 5K run/walk, Federal Workforce Day at the Washington Nationals, and a congressional breakfast to congratulate the finalists of the Samuel J. Heyman Service to America Medals.
