| Specialized Training Programs |
 |
| |
| |
| In addition to the general Central Banking Seminar, the Bank
also offers specialized courses in Bank Supervision, U.S. Monetary
Policy Implementation, Management and Operations, Payment Systems,
Portfolio Management and Market Analysis and U.S. Economy: Interpreting
the Indicators. Several programs are held the week following
the Central Banking Seminar, and at least two of them are repeated
in the spring. Most courses last for one week and some run concurrently.
The specialized courses feature in-depth presentations by experts
from the particular specialty areas and, in selected instances,
speakers from outside the Bank.
Beyond the technical information covered in the specialized
courses, the programs' collegial environment offers the participants
extensive opportunities to network at all levels. Participants
interact with the speakers and other Federal Reserve Bank
officials both during sessions, and informally at luncheons,
receptions, and other gatherings. Individual appointments
with officials in the financial community can also be arranged
so that the participants are able to pursue seminar topics
in greater detail.
Each specialized course draws together participants from
industrial, emerging and transitional economies on a common
footing. Participants meet and establish personal contact
with fellow central bankers and supervisors from around the
world. Through these contacts, participants explore how others
cope with universal challenges.
For Participants - Please note that participation is limited
to central bankers and bank supervisors. In addition, we must
receive an endorsement from the governor or chief executive
of your institution before we review your application.
Endorsements should be sent via facsimile to Carol Tortora,
International Affairs Office, (212) 720-1527, or via e-mail
to carol.tortora@ny.frb.org.
Calendars and agendas are updated each season. |

Policy Implementation |

| The U.S. Monetary Policy Implementation course covers
the institutional arrangements and operational procedures used
by the Federal Reserve to implement its domestic monetary policy
and to manage its portfolio of domestic assets. Topics covered
include methods of forecasting the central bank’s balance
sheet, formulation and execution of open market operations,
role of requirements and standing facilities, and other related
topics.
The course will also include discussion sessions in which
participants will be expected to contribute meaningfully to
conversations regarding methods for monetary policy implementation.
In doing so, participants should be comfortable describing
the framework and operating procedures used by their respective
central banks to implement monetary policy and the major challenges.
The course is intended for central bankers and other officials
directly involved with the implementation of monetary policy.
In the past we have received many more qualified applicants
than we could accept, and we have had to grant preference
to those individuals whose job responsibilities were directly
involved with operations to implement monetary policy.
