SUMMARY: The Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD) is adding a new 
System

[[Page 33636]]

of Records entitled, ``Financial Management Online (FM Online), DUSDC 
03.'' The DoD is required to strengthen the professional development of 
the DoD financial management workforce and to ensure DoD financial 
managers are properly trained to meet current and future Warfigher 
support requirements. The Defense Financial Management Certification 
Program (DFMCP) is the approved strategy to meet this requirement.

DATES: This new System of Records is effective upon publication; 
however, comments on the Routine Uses will be accepted on or before 
July 2, 2020. The Routine Uses are effective at the close of the 
comment period.

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments, identified by docket number and 
title, by any of the following methods:
     Federal Rulemaking Portal: https://www.regulations.gov.
    Follow the instructions for submitting comments.
     Mail: DoD cannot receive written comments at this time due 
to the COVID-19 pandemic. Comments should be sent electronically to the 
docket listed above.
    Instructions: All submissions received must include the agency name 
and docket number for this Federal Register document. The general 
policy for comments and other submissions from members of the public is 
to make these submissions available for public viewing on the internet 
at https://www.regulations.gov as they are received without change, 
including any personal identifiers or contact information.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mrs. Luz D. Ortiz, Chief, Records, 
Privacy and Declassification Division (RPDD), 1155 Defense Pentagon, 
Washington, DC 20311-1155, or by phone at (571) 372-0478.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The DFMCP implements DoD Instruction (DoDI) 
1300.26, Operation of the DoD Financial Management Certification 
Program (DFMCP) and meets the business requirement to comply with 10 
U.S.C. 1599d, Financial Management Positions: Authority to Prescribe 
Professional Certification and Credential Standards, as a condition of 
employment, authorizing the Secretary of Defense to establish a 
certification program for the 57,000 Financial Management (FM) 
workforce in order to improve audit readiness and analytic capability. 
The DFMCP is the approved strategy to meet this requirement and 
supports the DoDI 1400.25, Volume 250, DoD Civilian Personnel 
Management System: Civilian Strategic Human Capital Planning (SHCP).
    FM Online, originally launched in 2011, is an online professional 
development portal for the DoD FM Workforce. The future state will 
enhance FM Online by adding a DoD FM Certification Tracking and 
Reporting module, thus creating a requirement to house Personally 
Identifiable Information (PII).
    FM Online is sponsored by the OUSD(C). FM Online will support the 
DoD in administering a variety of professional development programs and 
tools to support the DoD Financial Management workforce. It will enable 
the OUSD(C) to identify skill and competency gaps and strengths and 
provide training and development tools to prepare the workforce to meet 
current and future requirements to support the mission. FM Online will 
support the mandatory three level professional certification program 
applicable to 57,000 members of the FM Workforce. Members must achieve 
the appropriate certification level for their positions within two 
years of notification of applicable certification requirements (or the 
period of any extension). Also, members must sustain their FM 
certification by the end of each two-year cycle by accomplishing 
Continuing Education and Training (CET) requirements.
    The OSD notices for Systems of Records subject to the Privacy Act 
of 1974, as amended, have been published in the Federal Register and 
are available from the address in FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT or on 
the Defense Privacy, Civil Liberties, and Transparency Division website 
at https://dpcld.defense.gov.
    The proposed system reports, as required by the Privacy Act, as 
amended, were submitted on April 13, 2020, to the House Committee on 
Oversight and Reform, the Senate Committee on Governmental Affairs, and 
the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) pursuant to Section 6 of OMB
