EHRI Coding
dddddd
2
Learning Objectives
There are four key learning objectives in this module. You will:1. Learn what EHRI means, why it was developed, and why you need to enter EHRI
data for each training event. You will also understand the fundamentals of the EHRI process, including data entry,
compilation and transmission. [Slides 3 – 8].
2. Know where to turn for assistance on EHRI coding if you have
questions in the future. [Slides 9 – 12].
3. Become familiar with all 27 EHRI fields, and understand the
fields where you are responsible for entering data. [Slides 13 – 17].
4. Understand what data OPM is looking for in each EHRI field and how
they want it entered. You will learn the Department’s best practices for coding each of these fields. You will practice entering EHRI codes for sample training sessions. [Slides 18 – 55].

Learning Objective 1.What is EHRI?
In this segment of the EHRI module, you will benefit by learning the
following:• Learn what EHRI means.
• Know why EHRI was developed.
• Understand the fundamentals of the EHRI process,
including data entry, compilation and transmission.
• Understand the benefits of EHRI.

Learning Objective 1.What Is EHRI (Cont’d)?
• Enterprise Human Resources Integration (EHRI) was developed because oversight agencies such as the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and various Congressional committees wanted to be able to get government-wide training data through the U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM).
• EHRI is a data repository designed to automate, simplify and unify human resources (HR) services across the Government.
4
5
Learning Objective 1.What Is EHRI (Cont’d)?
The EHRI process works as follows:
All Federal agencies report training event completions electronically on a monthly basis to OPM.
OPM loads training data files into its EHRI data repository.
OPM responds promptly to inquiries from OMB and Congress.
Instructors build courses in the CLC and input proper EHRI codes.
A student enrolls in a course via the CLC and completes it.

6
Learning Objective 1.What Is EHRI (Cont’d)?
Training data are to be reported on an individual employee basis for all Federal civilian employees, which means the reporting of:
All Training Data Element Codes For Each Completed Training Event For Each Employee

Learning Objective 1.What Is EHRI (Cont’d)?
• EHRI is one of 24 collaborative electronic government (e-Gov) initiatives managed by OPM.
• Benefits of EHRI: Gives the Federal government a modern tool for the management
of human capital. Replaces past practice of storing workforce data in an assortment
on non-integrated legacy systems of varied functionality. Enables a level of planning, analysis and accountability that until
now has been impossible due to the dispersal and incompatibility of personnel records among federal agencies.

10
Learning Objective 2.EHRI Resources (Cont’d)
• Federal agencies should rely on the OPM Guide to Human Resources Reporting (OPM Guide) to prepare their training data information:http://www.opm.gov/feddata/ghrr/index.asp
Chapter 4 - Training Interface Processing, Table 4.8, Pgs. 4-13 – 4-15: http://www.opm.gov/feddata/ghrr/ghrr07_ch4.pdf
Appendix A - Reference Code Values: http://www.opm.gov/feddata/ghrr/ghrr07_appenda.pdf
• Use the materials in this training module as a guide. This module contains:
All required EHRI components from the OPM Guide. Additional hints, tips and guidance on how OMB and Congress have
asked Federal agencies to use and interpret EHRI codes. You should print slide 15 of this module for a reference. It lists
the slide number(s) where you will find coding instructions for each particular field further on in the presentation.

Codes in this bucket allow a distinction to be made between
training events that are part of an accredited degree program and
those that are not. OPM uses this information to respond to requests
from OMB and Congress.
HOW/WHERE
Codes in this bucket refer to how the course is being delivered and from where
the training is being provided.
WHYCodes in this bucket
describe why or for what purpose the student is
taking the training. This information helps OMB
and Congress understand the reason employees take specific training.
WHEN
Codes in this bucket capture the amount of time the employee will spend to
complete the training.
HOW MUCHCodes in this bucket are used to determine how much is being spent on training. This includes costs such as training materials, travel and
