The Comptroller General has confirmed that Federal agencies may authorize expending appropriated funds for outplacement (placement outside the Department of Defense including private industry) assistance when this benefits the Department and the costs are reasonable. Installation commanders may authorize outplacement assistance as appropriate. Assistance may be provided for career transition training, remedial training; contractor placement services, in which there is no placement fee; administrative support, such as use of computers, copiers, and other equipment; and clerical support to prepare job applications or resumes.
