Assists presidential candidates, the incumbent administration and agencies with transition planning
Our comprehensive Presidential Transition Guide serves as a roadmap for transition planning, while our Agency Transition Guide helps career officials prepare critical information for incoming senior leaders. We have assembled a library of past transition documents and offer a series of nonpartisan conferences and roundtable discussions for candidates and their transition teams.
Prepares presidential appointees to succeed
Our Ready to Govern® program accelerates the ability of political appointees to lead by deepening their understanding of the unique aspects of managing in the federal government. We provide content and planning tools to help appointees get ready for rigorous background checks, ethics evaluations and the Senate confirmation process.

Advocates for reforms and draws attention to transition issues
We work with Congress to promote presidential transition reforms and streamline the appointments process.
