U.S. General Services Administration - OES Evaluation Fellowship Requirements
- Employees of state, local, or Tribal governments, academic institutions, or non-profit organizations are eligible to join the team via the Intergovernmental Personnel Act (IPA) Mobility Program. Through the IPA, Fellows join OES on loan from their home institutions on either a reimbursable or non-reimbursable basis. OES Fellows have come from a variety of universities (e.g., Harvard University, Reed College, Miami University, and University of California, San Diego), non-profits (e.g., ideas42, Association for Psychological Science, and MDRC), and federal departments (e.g., the U.S. Department of Labor, the U.S. Forest Service, and the National Science Foundation). Full-time Fellowships begin in Fall 2026.
- Current federal employees can join the team on a temporary, reimbursable detail assignment via an Inter-Agency Agreement (IAA), with negotiable start dates and lengths of assignments (minimum of six months). We’ve had federal employees join the team as detailees from agencies including Treasury, HUD, USDA, DOL, and ED, and have hosted Presidential Management Fellows for rotations as well.
