Media: PowerPoint Presentation Facilitator's Material: Each primary facilitator should possess a lesson plan, slide deck, course handouts, practical exercise with answer keys, and summary sheet containing DFAS-IN Regulation 37-1, Finance and Accounting Policy Implementation, DFAS-IN Manual , The Army Management Structure, DODFMR R, Vol 10, Department of Defense Financial Management Regulation Learner’s Material: Learners should possess course handouts, practical exercises and summary sheet containing DFAS-IN Regulation 37-1, DFAS-IN Manual , DODFMR R, Vol 10, with access to both Bb and ALMS, and standard classroom supplies. Facilitator's Note: "All required references and technical manuals will be provided by the School House“ Motivator (Concrete Experience): In today’s Army, we define ourselves as being the best trained, equipped and the best led Army that the United States has ever known. So to keep this image we as Financial Leaders and Managers have to become the best at financially supporting our Soldiers and being stewards of taxpayer dollars. General Fund Enterprise Business System (GFEBS) is designed to establish a foundation of operational knowledge training Soldiers to understand the application. The outcome of this lesson is to help learners understand the purpose of GFEBS, how it is used, manage resources, increase efficiency, reduce financial losses, and provide comprehensive oversight.

Complete Invoice Processing Safety Requirements: In a training environment, leaders must perform a risk assessment in accordance with DA PAM , Risk Management. Leaders will complete a DD Form 2977 DELIBERATE RISK ASSESSMENT WORKSHEET during the planning and completion of each task and sub-task by assessing mission, enemy, terrain and weather, troops and support available-time available and civil considerations (METT-TC). Local policies and procedures must be followed during times of increased heat category in order to avoid heat related injury. Consider the work/rest cycles and water replacement guidelines IAW TRADOC Regulation Risk Assessment Level: Low. Environmental Considerations: Environmental protection is not just the law but the right thing to do. It is a continual process and starts with deliberate planning. Always be alert to ways to protect our environment during training and missions. In doing so, you will contribute to the sustainment of our training resources while protecting people and the environment from harmful effects. Refer to FM Environmental Considerations and GTA ENVIRONMENTAL-RELATED RISK ASSESSMENT. Evaluation: Learners will be assessed in ALMS obtaining a passing score on all required GFEBS DL lessons taking the pretest, or posttest if failing to obtain a passing score on the pretest. Learners will also be assessed using “Go” or “No Go” on Professional Development and Leadership during the Capstone Exercise. Instructional Lead-In: DL GFEBS website in ALMS is provided for learners for GFEBS training materials and assistance in completing the tasks in GFEBS to be done before any GFEBS training. The website contains the information that will assist in teaching you how to work the system. You will find information on the types of materials available and navigation instructions. GFEBS Role Profiles: Role descriptions for each role in the GFEBS system the following information can be found: Role Description Tasks performed by the role Role criticality Magnitude of change needed to perform the role Skills and knowledge necessary to successfully complete the role Data sensitivity considerations Integration with other roles GFEBS User Procedures: The User Procedures are step-by-step instruction for major business tasks performed in GFEBS user roles, process area, role name, and user procedures. GFEBS Application Tutorials: Application tutorials enable you to practice tasks performed in GFEBS in a simulated environment. Run the application tutorial in either Auto Playback or Standard mode (allows you to enter information and click through on your own). GFEBS Job Aids: Job Aids are quick reference guides that provide key content, definitions, fields, and other pertinent information that can be used to complete tasks in GFEBS. GFEBS Business Process Flows: Business process flows provide a graphical depiction of the different components required to complete a task in GFEBS. Training Guides: Training Guides are used for Facilitator Led Training and provide key information on the concepts and terms associated with performing tasks in GFEBS. Training Information: The Training Information category hosts information and documents related to the GFEBS Training Process, including registration and course information. GFEBS training curriculum, requirements, post/pretest examinations, course/lesson schedules. Audio: This course contains audio so it will be helpful to use headphones or the audio capabilities of your PC (if available). Facilitator's Note: Discuss and help the learners understand the importance of funding the force via the utilization of GFEBS. Facilitator's Note: The critical portion of this part of the ALM process is to force the learners to reflect. As the facilitator you can achieve this by asking a series of thought influencing questions, for example: Your past experience, or theirs and how could it relate to this lesson. How did it make the learners feel about the personal experiences mentioned that might be taken to alleviate in learning the content(s). What did you see or hear that makes the learners relate to the discussions being held. Financial Management School FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT SCHOOL
