In accordance with the Government Performance and Results Modernization Act of 2010, this report provides a summary of the U.S. Department of Education (Department) Office of Inspector General (OIG) performance highlights and results of their performance measures for fiscal year (FY) 2021. Those goals align with OIG's FYs 2018-2022 Strategic Plan (see ED620770)--their plan for providing effective and objective oversight of the Department's programs and operations. Over the past year OIG protected and recovered millions of taxpayer dollars, fought fraud and corruption, and issued guidelines to assist external auditors with meeting Federal requirements. OIG also continued their practice of reaching outside of their office to collaborate with other agencies on intergovernmental projects that encourage them to perform ever better.
