Special Emphasis Programs

Special Emphasis Programs (SEPs) assist federal government agencies to carry out their equal opportunity initiatives. At FAA, SEPs are an integral part of achieving a Model EEO Program through strategic outreach efforts and collaboration. SEPs assist to educate, attract, and retain all groups, including minorities, women and persons with disabilities to enhance the FAA, as an employer of choice.
