of service delivery. Examples of training include eligibility requirements, intake process, goal <br />setting, case management techniques, performance management, exit strategies and follow-up <br />techniques. The trainings were tailored to meet the specific needs of each Service Provider. <br />ELIGIBILITY DETERMINATION <br />The SAWC as the Service Navigator will assume the primary responsibility of determining WIA <br />youth eligibility in accordance with Federal, State, and local rules and regulations. We will train <br />Service Providers on the eligibility process, provide eligibility forms, calculate participant's <br />family income, determine participant eligibility, review and analyze participant goals and <br />activities, and process eligibility JTA/MIS forms. <br />The SAWC has a designated Eligibility Technician with the experience and knowledge to <br />determine WIA youth eligibility effectively. The Eligibility Technician will review all submitted <br />applications and determine eligibility by verifying eligibility documentation, youth participant <br />right to work, selective service compliance (for males 18 years and older), and determining <br />income eligibility in accordance with the Poverty Guidelines. Review goals and activities to <br />ensure that Performance Measures can be attained, record the participants' information in a <br />database in order to produce reports necessary to keep Service Providers informed, and forward <br />accurate JTA forms to MIS personnel. <br />Recommendations, suggestions, and/or corrections are given to each Service Provider as needed <br />to ensure that the eligibility requirements have been met, and that enrollment goals for each <br />program and the YSPN as a whole are reached. An Eligibility Flow Chart is attached (see <br />attachment A) to provide a better understanding of how eligibility is processed. <br />COMPLETING JTA & MIS FORMS <br />The SAWC will ensure that JTA/MIS forms are completed accurately and submitted within the <br />allotted timeframe. We will review all JTA/MIS forms to ensure accuracies and compliance with <br />Federal, State, and Local guidelines. All Service Provider will be provided with computerized <br />JTA/MIS forms, training on completion of JTA/MIS forms, and a JTA/MIS Time Line Policy. <br />7 <br />
