Education program or activity: On or off campus locations, events, or circumstances over which the school exercises substantial control over both the Respondent and the context In which the Sexual Harassment occurred. Policies and Procedures 1. Title IX Policy Statement UEI strictly prohibits Sexual Harassment and retaliation against any person who reports Sexual Harassment or participates (or refuses to participate) in any Title IX grievance process under this policy. UEI will respond to a report of Sexual Harassment when it (1) has actual knowledge of Sexual Harassment; (2) that occurred within an applicable school's education program or activity; (3) against a person in the United States. If the alleged conduct does not constitute Sexual Harassment, the school may investigate the concern as required by the Student Complaint/Grievance Procedure Policy outlined in this school catalog and/or the Complaint Procedure Policy outlined in the Team Member Handbook. 2. Title IX Coordinator UEI's Title IX Coordinator oversees compliance with all aspects of this policy and is designated by UEI to intake reports and Formal Complaints of Sexual Harassment, provide supportive measures, and investigate alleged Sexual Harassment. The contact information for UEI's Title IX Coordinator is as follows: Title IX Coordinator Senior Director of Human Resources International Education Corporation 16486 Laguna Canyon Rd Ste. 300 Irvine, CA 92618 (949) 812-7706 TitlelXCoord i nator@ ieccolleges.com Any person can report sex discrimination, including Sexual Harassment (whether or not the person reporting is the alleged victim) in person, by mail, telephone, or e-mail, using the contact information listed above for the Title IX Coordinator. A report can be made at any time, including during non -business hours. However, responses to reports made outside of business hours, including during weekends and holidays, may be delayed. 3. Supportive Measures Supportive measures are individualized services reasonably available to ensure equal educational access, protect safety or deter Sexual Harassment. Supportive Measures are available, as appropriate to the Complainant and Respondent and are non - punitive, non -disciplinary and not unreasonably burdensome to the other party. H Upon receiving a report of Sexual Harassment, the Title IX Coordinator will promptly contact the Complainant confidentially to discuss the availability of supportive measures. The Title IX Coordinator shall notify the Complainant that supportive measures are available regardless of whether a Formal Complaint is filed and explain to the Complainant the process for filing a Formal Complaint. Supportive Measures are individualized and appropriate based on the information gathered by the Title IX Coordinator, The Supportive Measures needed by the Complainant and/or Respondent may change over time, and the Title IX Coordinator will communicate with each party to ensure that any Supportive Measures are necessary and effective based on evolving needs. Supportive measures will be provided without fee or charge and may include: • Counseling; • Extending deadlines; • Modifying class or work schedules; • Placing mutual restrictions on contact between the parties; • Providing campus escort services; • Changing work locations; and • Providing leaves of absence. 4. Formal Complaint UEI utilizes a prompt, equitable and impartial grievance process to evaluate Formal Complaints of Sexual Harassment, which may be filed by a Complainant or by UEI's Title IX Coordinator. A Formal Complaint is a document (hardcopy or electronic) filed by a Complainant or signed by the Title IX Coordinator alleging Sexual Harassment against a Respondent and requesting that the school investigate. A Formal Complaint must be signed (physical or digital) by the Complainant, the Title IX Coordinator or otherwise indicate that that Complainant is the person filing the Formal Complaint. When filing a Formal Complaint, the Complainant must be participating in or attempting to participate in the education program or activity of the school at which the Formal Complaint is filed. The Title IX Coordinator will respect the Complainant's wishes as to whether the Title IX Coordinator investigates an allegation of Sexual Harassment unless the Title IX Coordinator determines that not investigating would be deliberately indifferent or harmful to the school community. The Title IX Coordinator may consolidate Formal Complaints where the allegations arise out of the same facts. Formal Complaints Involving employees will also be referred to the Human Resources Department and simultaneously evaluated under applicable employee conduct policies and procedures outlined in the Team Member Handbook. 5. Dismissal of Formal Complaints in Certain Circumstances The Title IX Coordinator will dismiss a Formal Complaint if the conduct alleged in the Formal Complaint: • Does not meet the definition of Sexual Harassment; • Did not occur in the school's education program or activity; or • Did not occur against a person in the United States. The Title IX Coordinator may dismiss a Formal Complaint where: • Complainant notifies the Title IX Coordinator in writing that the Complainant wishes to withdraw the Formal Complaint or allegations; • Respondent is no longer enrolled or employed by the school; or • Specific circumstances prevent the school from gathering evidence sufficient to reach a determination regarding responsibility, UEI shall provide the parties with written notice of a dismissal, whether mandatory or discretionary, and the reason for the dismissal. Dismissal of the Formal Complaint under this policy does not preclude the institution from investigating the allegations under a different policy such as the Student Complaint/Grievance Procedure Policy outlined in this school catalog and/or the Complaint Procedure Policy outlined in the Team Member Handbook. 6. Written Notice of Allegations Upon receipt of a Formal Complaint of Sexual Harassment, the Title IX Coordinator shall provide written notice of the allegations to the parties. The written notice shall: • Include sufficient details of the allegations, Including the identities of the parties involved, policy alleged to have m been violated, the conduct allegedly constituting Sexual Harassment, and the date and location of the alleged incident in order to allow the parties to prepare for an initial interview. • Inform the parties that they may have an advisor of their choice. • Inform the parties they will have an opportunity to review evidence obtained during the investigation. • Include a statement that the Respondent is presumed not responsible for the alleged conduct and that a determination regarding responsibility is made at the conclusion of the entire grievance process. • Inform the parties that they are prohibited from knowingly making any false statement or knowingly submitting false information during the grievance process. The parties will also be provided with separate written notice of any investigative interview, meeting, or hearing. Interview/meeting notices will include the date, time, location, participants and purpose of the investigative interview or meeting. 7. Informal Resolution After a Formal Complaint is filed, the school may offer the parties the opportunity to engage in an informal resolution process such as a mediation or informal settlement conference. The school, however, will not offer or facilitate an informal resolution process where the allegations in the Formal Complaint allege that an employee sexually harassed a student. Before proceeding with an informal resolution process, both parties must give voluntary, informed, written consent. UEI will provide written notice to the parties disclosing the allegations, the requirements of the informal resolution process, and any consequences of participating in the Informal resolution process. Any party may withdraw from the informal resolution process and resume the grievance process with respect to the Formal Complaint at any point prior to agreeing to a resolution. 8. Emergency Removal of Respondents from Campus UEI may temporarily remove an individual from campus on an interim basis during the pendency of a Formal Complaint in limited emergency circumstances where there is an immediate threat to physical health or safety. Before taking this emergency measure, the school will: • Undertake an individualized safety and risk analysis to determine whether there is an immediate threat to the physical health or safety of any person arising from the allegations of Sexual Harassment; • Make an affirmative determination that such an immediate threat exists based on its individualized safety and risk analysis; and • Provide the Respondent with notice and an opportunity to challenge the emergency decision immediately following the Respondent's removal. School administrators will issue timely warnings for incidents reported that pose a substantial threat of bodily harm or danger to other members of the campus community. UEI will make every effort to ensure that a victim's name and other identifying information are not disclosed, while still providing enough Information for community members to make safety decisions in light of the danger. UEI reserves the right to notify parents/guardians of dependent students regarding any health or safety risk, or a change in student status. Personally, identifiable information for victims of Sexual Assault, Dating Violence, Domestic Violence and Stalking will not be included in any publicly available recordkeeping, including Clary Act Reporting and disclosures. 9. Grievance Process UEI shall Investigate all Formal Complaints of Sexual Harassment using its grievance process, which is designed to ensure due process and fairness to all parties, Title IX personnel (Title IX Coordinator, investigators, decision -makers, and individuals who facilitate informal resolution) will be free from conflicts of interest or bias for or against Complainants or Respondents. Title IX personnel will objectively evaluate all relevant evidence and avoid credibility determinations based on a person's status as a Complainant, Respondent, or witness. UEI shall not impose discipline on a Respondent without going through the required grievance process. A. Standard of Evidence For all Formal Complaints of Sexual Harassment (including where employees are Respondents), UEI applies the preponderance of the evidence standard, meaning that it is "more likely than not" that something did or did not occur. B. Presumption of Non -Responsibility A Respondent is presumed not responsible for the alleged Sexual Harassment until a determination regarding responsibility is made at the conclusion of the grievance process. C. Advisor As outlined in the written notice of allegations, the parties may have an advisor of their choice present at any stage of the process. The advisor is allowed to be present at any meeting but is required to be at the live hearing for the purpose of conducting cross-examinations. If the party does not have an advisor for the live hearing, UEI shall provide, without fee or charge to that party, an advisor of UEI's choice. The Complainant and Respondent may not conduct cross-examination. D. Investigation Process A Formal Complaint shall be investigated by the Title IX Coordinator or other trained designee ("investigator'), who will conduct interviews and gather evidence. The investigator will objectively evaluate all relevant evidence and avoid credibility determinations based on a person's status as a Complainant, Respondent, or witness. The investigator shall be free from conflicts of interest or bias for or against the Complainant or Respondent. Both parties shall have an equal opportunity to submit and review evidence throughout the investigation process, including the opportunity to present fact and expert witnesses and other inculpatory and exculpatory evidence. UEI shall not restrict the parties' ability to discuss the allegations or gather or present evidence. The scope of an investigation will vary depending on the allegations and circumstances of each individual Formal Complaint. Each Formal Complaint will be assessed on an individualized basis. For purposes of illustration, an investigation may include the following steps, as appropriate: • Reviewing the Formal Complaint; • Gathering additional information or statements from Complainant; Gathering information from any witnesses (for example faculty, staff or other students with potentially relevant Information); • Reviewing relevant documentation and policies; • Obtaining a response, written statement, and other information from Respondent. The investigator shall provide written notice to the parties in advance of any meeting, interview, or hearing conducted as part of the investigation in which they are expected or invited to participate. E. Review of Evidence Before concluding the investigation, UEI shall provide the parties and their advisors, if any, the opportunity to inspect and review any evidence obtained during the investigation that is directly related to the allegations raised in the Formal Complaint, including all Inculpatory and exculpatory evidence. The evidence will be provided to the parties in an electronic format or a hard copy, and the parties will be given 10 days to submit a written response. The investigator will consider the written responses before the completion of the Investigative report. F. Investigative Report At the conclusion of the investigation, the investigator will create an investigative report that fairly summarizes the relevant evidence. The investigative report shall be provided to the parties (and their advisors) in an electronic format or a hard copy, and the parties will be given 10 days to submit a written response. The final investigative report will be provided at least 10 days before the live hearing, so the parties have the opportunity to review and provide written responses. G. Live Hearing If a Formal Complaint is not or cannot be resolved through informal resolution, UEI shall hold a live hearing ("hearing"). The hearing will be overseen by the applicable Campus President/Executive Director or other trained designee ("decision - maker'), separate from the Title IX Coordinator or investigator. The decision -maker shall be free from conflicts of Interest or bias and shall be trained on how to serve impartially, issues of relevance and any technology to be used at the hearing. The hearing may be conducted with all parties present physically or virtually, so long as all participants are able to see and hear one another in real time. A party is prohibited from solely participating in the hearing by telephone. At the request of either party, the school will permit the parties to be in separate rooms during the entirety W of the hearing. The school will create an audio or audiovisual recording, or transcript of the hearing. 1. Cross -Examination During the hearing, every witness may be subjected to cross-examination by the party's advisor. The school will allow a party's advisor to directly and in real time present all relevant questions and follow up questions to another party orwitness, Including the advisor challenging the credibility of a party, Cross-examination must come from a party's advisor and may not come directly from a party. If a party or witness does not submit to live cross- examination, the decision -maker will not rely on any statement made by that party or witness when making the decision about the Respondent's responsibility. Only statements that have been tested for credibility through cross-examination at the hearing may be considered by the decision -maker in reaching a responsibility determination. This includes statements against interest. By way of example, if a party makes a statement against interest to the investigator during the investigation, but subsequently declines to participate in the hearing or otherwise be subject to cross-examination, the statement made to the Investigator will not be relied upon in making a determination regarding responsibility. The decision -maker will also not draw any inference regarding responsibility based solely on a party's or witness' absence from the hearing or refusal to answer cross-examination or other questions. 2. Questions Must Be Relevant Questions posed to parties and witnesses at the hearing must be relevant. Before a Complainant, Respondent, or witness answers a cross- examination or other question, the decision - maker must determine whether the question. being asked is relevant and provide an explanation as to any decision to exclude a question as not relevant. Questions relating to a Complainant's prior sexual behavior are irrelevant unless the questions are offered to prove someone else was responsible for the alleged conduct or offered to prove consent. 3. Evidence Limitations UEI will not rely on or seek disclosure of Information protected under a legally recognized privilege unless the person holding such privilege has waived the privilege. UEI will not access or use a party's medical, psychological, or similar treatment records unless the party provides voluntary, written consent. H. Written Determination Based on all relevant evidence obtained during the investigation and hearing, the decision -maker shall issue a written determination. The written determination will include a determination of responsibility as well as a written finding of facts. The determination will include a description of the procedure from Formal Complaint through hearing and clearly state a conclusion regarding whether the alleged conduct occurred as alleged or at all and support each conclusion with the rationale relied upon. The written determination will also indicate the sanctions imposed on the Respondent and whether remedies will be provided to the Complainant. Following a determination of responsibility, appropriate corrective action will be taken, and UEI will take steps to prevent recurrence. Sanctions will be determined on a case -by -case basis. Possible sanctions may include, but are not limited to: • Warning: Notice, in writing, that continuation or repetition of the misconduct may be cause for additional disciplinary action. Disciplinary Probation: Exclusion from participation in privileged activities for a specified period of time. Additional restrictions or conditions may also be imposed. Violations of the terms of disciplinary probation or any other UEI policy violations may result in further disciplinary action. • Restriction on Contact: Restricting the Respondent from contacting the Complainant. • Suspension: Exclusion from UEI premises, attending classes, and other privileges or activities for a specified period of time. Expulsion: Permanent termination of student status and exclusion from UEI premises, privileges, and activities. • Termination: Termination of employment*. • Other: Other sanctions may be imposed instead of, or in addition to, those specified here. • Multiple Sanctions: More than one of the sanctions listed above may be imposed for any single violation. *Employees are also subject to processes and discipline determined by the campus under the applicable policies outlined in the Team Member Handbook, which are separate and apart from the Title IX process and not constrained by the outcome of the Title IX process. The determination will be sent simultaneously to the parties along with information to both parties regarding the process of filing an appeal. I. Appeals Either party is permitted to file a written appeal of a determination regarding responsibility within ten (10) calendar days after receiving the written determination. The written appeal must be limited to 10 pages, double spaced, 12-point font. A party is permitted to appeal only based on the following grounds: • Procedural irregularity that affected the outcome; • New evidence that was not reasonably available when the determination of responsibility was made that could affect the outcome; or • The Title IX personnel had a general or specific conflict of interest or bias that affected the outcome. The appeal will be ruled on by the applicable Regional Vice President of Operations or another trained designee. The parties will be informed in writing of the outcome of any appeal within thirty (30) days of receipt of the appeal. The appeal decision is final. J. Time Frame for Completion of Entire Grievance Process Generally, the grievance process consists of filing a Formal Complaint, investigation, hearing, determination (including sanctions and remedies as applicable) and appeal. The grievance process, barring extenuating circumstances, will conclude within ninety (90) days from the date a Formal Complaint is filed. However, the length of time will vary, making the grievance process shorter or longer depending on the complexity of the Investigation, the severity and extent of the alleged Sexual Harassment, the quantity and availability of witnesses, and other factors of significance that may affect the length of the investigation. Any delay or extension of the grievance process will be temporary, limited and for good cause and UEI shall notify the parties of the reason for any short-term delay or extension. K. Retaliation UEI will not retaliate against any individual for exercising rights under Title IX, including the participating in or refusing to participate in the filing of a Formal Complaint, the investigation, or any proceeding or hearing. Examples of prohibited retaliation include intimidation, threats, coercion, or discrimination, and specifically include bringing charges against an individual for student code of conduct violations that do not involve sex discrimination or Sexual Harassment but arise out of the same fact or circumstances as a report or complaint of sex discrimination or Sexual Harassment. Exercising rights protected under the First Amendment does not constitute retaliation. In addition, charging an individual for making a materially false statement in bad faith in the course of an investigation does not constitute retaliation. If you believe you have been retaliated against, you should contact the Title IX Coordinator or utilize any of the mechanisms outlined in this school catalog or Team Member Handbook. L. Recordkeeping UEI shall maintain records of Title IX activities as required by law, including records of: • Sexual Harassment investigations, including any determination regarding responsibility and any audio or audiovisual recording or transcript, any disciplinary sanctions imposed on the respondent, and any remedies provided tothe Complainant designed to restore or preserve equal access to the school's education program or activity; • Any appeal and the result therefrom; • Any informal resolution; and • All materials used to train Title IX coordinators, investigators, decision - makers, and any person who facilitates an informal resolution process. UEI shall create, and maintain for seven years, records of any actions (Including any supportive measures) taken in response to a report or Formal Complaint of Sexual Harassment. In each instance, UEI shall document the basis for its conclusion that its response was not deliberately Indifferent, and document that it has taken measures designed to restore or preserve equal access to the school's education program or activity. If a school does not provide a Complainant with supportive measures, the school will document the reasons why such a response was not clearly unreasonable in light of the known circumstances. M. Training The Title IX Coordinator and all personnel involved in the Title IX process outlined in this policy shall be trained on: • The definition of Sexual Harassment; • The scope of the school's education program or activity; • How to conduct an investigation and grievance process, including hearings, appeals, and informal resolution process, as applicable; and • How to serve impartially, including by avoiding prejudgment of the facts at issue, conflicts of interest, bias, and sex stereotypes. Investigators and decision -makers will receive training on issues of relevance, including how to apply the rape shield protections provided only for Complainants. Decision -makers will also receive training on any technology used at a hearing. UEI shall publish all training materials on the applicable school website on the Student Consumer Information page. N. Additional Information Students and employees may contact the Title IX Coordinator with any questions related to this policy. In addition, the U.S. Department of Education Office for Civil Rights ("OCR") investigates complaints of unlawful harassment of students in educational programs or activities. This agency may serve as a neutral fact finder and will attempt to facilitate the voluntary resolution of disputes with the parties.

W Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) To be eligible for graduation, a student must successfully complete and pass all modules and achieve a cumulative GPA of 2.0 by the time he/she completes the program. To be considered making satisfactory academic progress (SAP) toward graduation, a student must maintain a minimum cumulative grade point average and progress at a specified rate in order to complete the program within Maximum Time Frame (MTF) equal to 150 percent of the published program length. Satisfactory Academic Progress is measured according to an SAP evaluation schedule as specified in the Required Completion Rate charts included in this policy. SAP evaluation process and procedures for remediation are outlined in the following section of the policy. Academic Advisement Academic advising is provided to students throughout their program, based on individual needs. All Ability to Benefit ("ATB") students are required to attend advising sessions during their program. Students not meeting Satisfactory Academic Progress ("SAP") requirements must attend advising sessions until they improve their academic progress or are withdrawn from the College. Grading System UEI College grading scale in effect for modules starting on or after 9/26/2022: 96-100 A 4.0 90-95 A- 3.7 87-89 B+ 3.3 83-86 B 3.0 80-82 B- 2.7 76-79 C+ 2.3 70-75 C 2.0 66-69 C- 1.7 63-65 D+ 1.3 60-62 D 1.0 0-59 F 0 Students who do not achieve a letter grade of "D+" or better in any module are considered to have failed that module and must repeat it. When students repeat a failed module, the original grade will be replaced by the new grade which will then be calculated into the cumulative GPA. Until the module is repeated, the "F" grade will remain in the student's cumulative GPA and will be included in the assessment of Satisfactory Academic Progress ("SAP"). To achieve the required cumulative GPA of 2.0, students may be required to repeat a previously passed course. Students are not charged for repeats and will only receive financial aid for the 1s' attempt. Students must successfully achieve a minimum cumulative GPA 2.0 upon completion of all didactic classes to be eligible for externship. All programs require a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.0 for graduation, UEI College grading scale in effect for modules starting on or before 9/26/2022: Percent Letter Grade Grade Point Average 90 -100 A 4.0 80 - 89 B 3.0 70 - 79 C 2.0 60 - 69 D 1.0 0 - 59 F 0.0 Students who do not achieve a letter grade of "C" or better in any module are considered to have failed that module and must repeat it. When students repeat a failed module, the original grade will be replaced by the new grade which will then be calculated in the cumulative GPA. Until the module is repeated, the "D" or "F" grade will remain in the student's cumulative GPA and will be included in the assessment of Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP). TC Transfer Credit AF Attendance Fail LS Leave of Absence during module (Attendance in module is less than 25% of scheduled module hours) L Leave of Absence during module (Attendance in module is more than 25% of scheduled module hours) WS Withdrawn (Attendance in module is less than 25% of Scheduled module hours) W Withdrawn (Attendance in module is more than 25% of scheduled module hours) EW An early withdrawal is for all new students whose Last Day of Attendance (LDA) falls after the seventh (7) day but before midnight of the fourteenth (14) consecutive calendar day from the scheduled start date of the first module, not including school -scheduled breaks (winter, spring, and summer breaks only) and any holidays published in the academic calendar in the catalog. In addition, a student who does not achieve a minimum of 50.00% lab attendance for scheduled lab days by the 24 fourteen (14) consecutive calendar days from the start date will be an early withdrawal from the program. Required Grades Students must complete and pass all modules and achieve a cumulative 2.0 grade point average upon completion of the program to be eligible for graduation. To be considered making satisfactory academic progress toward graduation, a student must pass and achieve an overall cumulative grade point average of 2.0 for all successfully completed modules. Grade Changes and Repeats Within 24 hours from the last day of a module, a final module grade will be calculated and entered into the electronic student database. The grade entry due date is 24 business hours following the last day of the module. Any change to a final module grade must be completed within seven (7) calendar days after the grade entry due date. Requests to change a final grade must be reviewed and approved by the Education department within the Irvine Support Team. A student who fails a module must repeat that module and pass with a minimum grade point average of 2.0. When repeating a module, the highest achieved grade for that module becomes the official grade and is averaged in the cumulative GPA. Satisfactory Academic Policy I. Satisfactory Academic Progress: To be considered making satisfactory academic progress (SAP) toward graduation, a student must maintain a minimum cumulative grade point average and a minimum rate of completion, which is progress at a specified rate in order to complete the program within Maximum Time Frame (MTF) equal to 150 percent of the published program length. Satisfactory Academic Progress is measured according to a SAP evaluation schedule as specified in the SAP Standards charts included in this policy. The SAP evaluation process and procedures for remediation are outlined in the following section of the policy. II. Evaluation of Students' Satisfactory Academic Progress: For financial aid eligibility purposes, SAP is measured at the end of every financial aid payment period, which usually equates to 4 to 5 consecutive modules, depending on program length. At each evaluation point, the student's cumulative grade point average (CGPA) and rate of completion are measured. The rate of completion is also cumulative and measures the number of academic credits the student has completed out of the academic credits attempted. The student is also limited to attempting no more than 150% of the program length in academic credits. Also, if at any point it becomes mathematically impossible for the student to complete the program within 150%, the student will become Ineligible for additional Title IV and may be withdrawn. For academic purposes, student progress is monitored at the end of each module. Students who have failed a module will be advised. Advisements must clearly outline consequences of failing to meet minimum cumulative academic requirements, including repeating a module, delaying extemship, and/or delaying graduation, and include an action plan. Failure to meet the SAP measurement for either CGPA and/or rate of completion will result in the student receiving academic advisement and being placed on a SAP status of FA warning, FA probation, or termination. The completion charts below contain the SAP standards for CGPA and cumulative rate of completion for each SAP evaluation point. SAP Standards 8-Modules Program SAP Evaluation Schedule Minimum Rate of Completion Minimum CGPA First Evaluation 60% 1.4 (50%, typically 5 modules) Second Evaluation 62.5% 1.75 (100%, typically 8 modules) Maximum Timeframe 67% 2.0 (150%, typically 12 modules) SAP Standards 9-Modules Program SAP Evaluation Schedule Minimum Rate of Completion Minimum CGPA First Evaluation 60% 1.4 (50%, typically 5 modules) Second Evaluation 66.7% 1.85 (100%, typically 9 modules) Maximum Timeframe 67% 2.0 (150%, typically 13 modules) NEI All students must have a minimum 2.0 CGPA and a 67% completion rate at the end of the program in in order to graduate. SAP Sanctions FA Warning: If a student fails to meet SAP for the first time, the student is formally advised and put on FA Warning through the next SAP evaluation. A student is eligible for an additional disbursement of financial aid while on FA warning status. The student will be notified in writing of this change in SAP status. SAP Termination: If a student fails to meet SAP by the end of the FA warning or probation period and/or fails to meet the outcomes of the Academic Plan or reaches a point where it becomes mathematically impossible for the student to complete his or her program within the MTF, the student is no longer eligible for financial aid and may be terminated. The student will be notified in writing of this change in SAP status. FA Probation: If a student is on FA warning and fails at the next consecutive SAP evaluation, the student is terminated from financial aid, but may appeal and be placed on FA probation through the next SAP evaluation. Students on FA probation remain eligible for financial aid for one payment period. The student will be notified in writing of this change in SAP status. Conditions for Probation: 1. Student must appeal to be placed on probation; 2. An Academic Plan with a specific timeline and expected rate of completion and/or GPA outcomes Is required before an appeal may be granted; 3. In rare instances, the Academic Plan may exceed MTF based on a case by case review. In the event that the Academic Plan exceeds MTF, students are not eligible to receive Title IV. Appeal Procedure If a student is determined to not be meeting SAP requirements at the evaluation point after the FA warning status, the student is terminated from financial aid but may appeal the termination status. The student must submit a written appeal to the school within seven (7) calendar days after being notified of the adverse determination. The appeal must include what caused the student to fail to meet SAP, which must be an extenuating circumstance, such as an illness or accident, and include a description of what has changed/improved going forward that will allow him/her to achieve SAP by the next evaluation point. Students will be notified in writing of the termination status and their right to file an appeal within two business days of the receipt of the notification. If the appeal is granted, the student's financial aid will be reinstated for one additional payment period or for the duration of the Academic Plan, as applicable. How Different Grades and Statuses Count in the SAP Measurements Leave of Absence: Actual time taken for an approved Leave of Absence (LOA) and a module in which LOA began will not be included in calculation of pace of completion and maximum time to complete the program. Withdrawals: A module from which a student withdraws and receives the grade "W" or "WS" will be included as an attempted module in calculation of pace of completion and MTF to complete the program but will not impact the GPA. The "EW' grade does not have a SAP impact. Transfer Credits and Repeated Modules: Transfer credits, failed modules, and repeated modules will be counted as attempted in the rate of completion and the MTF. Transfer credits and repeated modules that are successfully completed will be also counted as successfully completed. Transfer credits are not counted towards the CGPA. For repeat courses, the highest achieved grade for that module becomes the official grade and is average in the CGPA. Incomplete grades are not given at the institution. Reentry after SAP Termination The student may appeal to reenter into the same program; such appeals will be reviewed on a case -by -case basis. An appeal to reenter does not automatically reinstate the student's financial aid eligibility. If the appeal is approved, the student is allowed to reenter but will return on the same SAP status as the point of withdrawal. The only exception being an approved appeal and placement on FA probation status. Otherwise, the reentry will be without financial aid and the student will be required to make alternative payment arrangements. The student may also have his or her financial aid reinstated by meeting the minimum SAP standards by the next evaluation point. Cancellation and Refund Policies Student Ri ht to Cancel: seventh day after enrollment, whichever is later. In accordance with California Education Code Section 94919(d), the institution's policy is that all new and re-entry students have the right to cancel the enrollment agreement until midnight of the seventh (7) day from the scheduled start date of the first module not including holidays (but does include weekends and in-service days). In accordance with California Education Code Section 94919(b), Students shall notify the school in writing of the cancellation of their enrollment agreement ("Notice of Cancellation"). If the Notice of Cancellation is received by mail, it is effective when deposited in the mail properly addressed with postage prepaid.

"Early Withdrawal" (EW) status is assigned to cancellations for new students with an LDA after the seventh (7) day but before midnight of the fourteenth (14) consecutive calendar day from the scheduled start date of the first module. The determination date for "EW" will fall on the 14th absent consecutive calendar day from the student's LDA, not including school -scheduled breaks (winter, spring, and summer breaks only) and any school -scheduled holidays, when the "EW' status will be automatically assigned by g Electronic Student Database. California Education Code Section 94919 (d) Note: Cancellations and Early Withdrawals will provides that the student has the right to cancel result in all charges being reversed. Additionally, and obtain a refund of charges paid through all tuition paid by the student will be refunded. attendance at the first-class session, or the 31 Cancellation Initiated by the Institution: There are conditions in which a cancellation determination will be made by the institution for new and re-entry students on or before midnight of the fourteenth (14) consecutive calendar day from the scheduled start date of the first module (for re-entry students, it is the first module in which the student is enrolled upon returning to school), not including school -scheduled holidays and school -scheduled breaks (winter, spring, and summer breaks only). The following conditions may result in a cancelation initiated by the institution: 1. Violation of the Student Code of Conduct. 2. Unable to obtain proof of high school graduation or equivalent. 3. Incomplete arrangements to fulfill financial obligations. Note: Cancellations and Early Withdrawals will result in all charges being reversed. The tuition paid will be returned to all students who cancel their enrollment within three (3) business days from the date the enrollment agreement was signed at the following locations: Bakersfield, Fresno, Gardena, Riverside and Sacramento. In the event an enrolled applicant is rejected, the school cancels the program, a student cancels his/her enrollment during the cancelation period or is a no show/never starts the program, all tuition paid by the student will be refunded. Institutional Refund Policy You have the right to withdraw from a course of instruction at any time. The institution has the right to withdraw a student after the cancellation period for the following reasons: 1. Not meeting minimum attendance requirements. 2. Not meeting minimum Satisfactory Academic Progress 3. Violation of the Student Code of Conduct. 4. Not returning from Leave of Absence 5. Not having been placed on an externship site within 14 days (as described in the attendance policy). 6. An Eligible Career Pathway Program (ECPP) student who fails to participate in the adult education component of the ECPP program for a period of time as determined by the adult education provider. A student may withdrawal from a program by notifying a campus representative, either in writing or verbally, of their intent to withdrawal. 32 The Institutional Refund Policy is used to determine the amount of tuition to be refunded to a student who withdraws or is terminated after the first day of class. Refunds are computed from the first date of entrance (commencement of training) to the last date of actual attendance as determined by official attendance records. When a student withdraws, the institution prorates tuition charges up to 75% of the period of enrollment based on the formula outlined below, For students who withdraw after attempting 75% of the period of enrollment, the institution will retain 100% of the tuition charges for that period of enrollment. This means that the student will be responsible for 100% of the tuition charges for the enrollment period. The calculation to determine the percentage of tuition to be refunded to the student is as follows: Scheduled hours In period of enrollment up to student's LDA = Percentage of period of Total hours in the period of enrollment attempted enrollment If percentage of period of enrollment attempted is 75% or more, then 100% of tuition will be retained by the institution. If the percentage is less than 75%, then the following calculation will be applied: Tuition X Percentage of period enrollment attempted Tuition Retained by Institution IF THE AMOUNT THAT YOU PAID IS MORE THAN THE AMOUNT THAT YOU OWE FOR THE TIME YOU ATTENDED, THEN A REFUND WILL BE MADE WITHIN 45 DAYS OF THE DATE THE INSTITUTION DETERMINES THAT YOU WITHDREW. IF THE AMOUNT YOU ARE CHARGED IS MORE THAN THE AMOUNT THAT YOU HAVE ALREADY PAID, THEN YOU WILL HAVE TO MAKE ARRANGMENTS TO PAY THE DIFFERENCE. If any portion of your tuition was paid from the proceeds of a loan, then the refund will be sent to the lender or the agency that guaranteed the loan, if any. Any remaining unearned funds received from the federal financial aid program will be returned to the federal financial aid program, and any remaining balance paid to you. Information regarding any applicable non -Title IV third party funding agency refund or return of funds policies (e.g., Veterans Administration, WIA, etc.) may be obtained by contacting the Director of Student Finance at your campus location. Return of Title IV Funds The U.S. Department of Education maintains a "return of Title IV Funds" policy for students who receive Federal financial aid and withdraw from school before completing sixty percent (60%) of the period of enrollment. This policy is separate from the state -approved institutional tuition refund policy described above. The federal policy defines the proportion of Title IV funds that the student is qualified to receive. The federal policy for "return of title IV Funds" defines that a student who has attended up through the sixty percent (60%) point in each period of enrollment has fully earned the Title IV funds for the period of enrollment. For a student who has attended less than the sixty-one percent (61%) point, the percentage of the Title IV funds earned is calculated by the following ratio: Number of calendar days elapsed* from start date of the enrollment period to the last date attended Percentage = of Title IV Funds Number of calendar Earned** days in the period of enrollment This ratio is multiplied by the federal financial aid disbursed plus the amount that could have been disbursed to equal the Title IV funds earned. Total disbursed minus earned equals the federal funds that must be returned to the funding program *Presuming the student attended sixty (60%) percent of all scheduled classes. If the student attended less than sixty (60%) percent of all scheduled classes, "elapsed time' Is not applied, actual hours are applied. ** Rounded to the nearest whole number To comply with the Higher Education Reconciliation Act of 2005, the institution will return unearned federal student aid funds for which it is responsible no later than 45 days after the date the institution determines that the student has withdrawn from school. Order of Refund The school will calculate the amount of financial aid earned up to the last date of attendance using a formula mandated by the U.S. Department of Education. If the amount of Federal Financial Aid Funds received is more than the amount of the aid earned, the difference must be returned to the appropriate "Title IV" program in the following order: 331 1. Direct Unsubsidized Loan 2. Direct Subsidized Loan 3. Direct Plus Loan 4. Federal Pell Grant 5. Federal SEOG Grant 6. Other "Title IV" loan or grant assistance Withdrawal Date: The withdrawal date for a student who officially or unofficially withdraws from school is the student's last date of attendance. The withdrawal date for a student who fails to return from a leave of absence (LOA) is the last date of attendance prior to the start of the LOA. Date of Determination (DOD) The DOD is the date used to determine the timeliness of the return of unearned title IV funds. The DOD is the earliest of the following three (3) dates: 1. Date the student provides official notification of intent to withdraw; 2. The date the student failed to comply with one of the school's published aftendance/academic policies; 3. 14 calendar days from the student's last date of attendance.

Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act: of 1974, As Amended The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974, as amended (FERPA), is a federal law that protects student information and affords eligible students the following rights with respect to their education records: 1. The right to inspect and review the student's education records within 45 days of the day the institution receives a request for access. 2. The right to request the amendment of education records the student believes are inaccurate, misleading, or otherwise in violation of the student's privacy rights under FERPA. 3. The right to provide written consent before the institution discloses personally identifiable information (Pit) from the student's education records, except to the extent that FERPA authorizes disclosure without consent. 4. The right to file a complaint with the U.S. Department of Education concerning alleged failures by the Institution to comply with the requirements of FERPA. An "eligible student" under FERPA is a student who is 18 years of age or older who attends a postsecondary institution. Please find a more detailed discussion of each of these rights and guidance regarding the manner in which they may be exercised below. 1. The right to inspect and review the student's education records within 45 days of the day the institution receives a request for access. With certain exceptions, an "education record" is defined under FERPA as any record (1) from which a student can be personally identified and (2) that is maintained by the institution. A student wishing to inspect his or her education records should submit to the Registrar a written request that identifies the record(s) the student wishes to inspect. The school will make arrangements for access and notify the student of the time and place where the records may be inspected. If the records are not maintained by the Registrar, the Registrar will advise the student of the correct official to whom the request should be addressed. 2. The right to request the amendment of education records the student believes are inaccurate, misleading, or otherwise in violation of the student's privacy rights under FERPA. To question the accuracy of education records, students should first informally confer with the custodian or originator of the record at Issue. A student who then wishes to ask the school to amend a record should write the official responsible for the record, clearly Identifying the part of the record that he or she believes should be amended and the basis for why it should be amended. If the school decides not to amend the record, it will notify the student in writing of the decision and the student's right to a hearing with school officials regarding the request for amendment. Additional information regarding hearing procedures will be provided to the student when notified of the right to a hearing. Note: The preceding procedure shall not be available to challenge the validity of a grade, or 36 score given by an instructor or any other decision by an instructor or official, but only whether the recording of such grade or decision is accurate or complete. 3. The right to provide written consent before the institution discloses PH from the student's education records, except to the extent that FERPA authorizes disclosure without consent. Students may consent to their school disclosing PH from the student's education record to a third party. This consent must be made to the Registrar, in writing, signed and dated by the student, and must (1) specify the records to be disclosed, (2) state the purpose of the disclosure, (3) and identify the party to whom the disclosure is to be made.

An America's Job Center of CaliforniasM (AJCC) may issue an Individual Training Account (ITA) to a WIOA Title I, subtitle B eligible individual (out of school youth age 16-24, adult or dislocated worker) to fund training services. The Employment Development Department (EDD) is the entity responsible for publishing, disseminating, and maintaining the comprehensive California (CA) ETPL with performance and cost information. In addition, the EDD is responsible for ensuring programs meet the eligibility criteria and performance levels established in this Directive; removing programs that do not meet the program criteria or performance levels established in this Directive; and taking enforcement actions against providers that intentionally provide inaccurate information, or that substantially violate the requirements of WIOA. Page 2 of 5 EXHIBIT C Likewise, the Local Board is responsible for carrying out the procedures outlined in this Directive; work with the state to ensure there are sufficient numbers and types of providers of training services with expertise in assisting individuals with disabilities, and adults in need of adult education and literacy activities; developing and maintaining a local ETPL; and ensuring the dissemination of the CA and local ETPL through the AICCs, including in formats accessible to individuals with disabilities. In cooperation with stakeholders, the State has adopted the following principles when developing the CA ETPL policies and procedures: 1. Simplicity — Avoid imposing burdens that inhibit the participation of quality training providers. 2. Customer Focus —The policies and procedures support the collection and presentation of easily accessible and reliable training program information for both individuals seeking career and occupational training information, and career planners who assist participants eligible for training services. 3. Informed Consumer Choice —The CA ETPL includes locally approved training programs that lead to self -sustainable careers in the local/regional economy, as supported by current labor market information identifying industry sectors and occupational clusters that are high -growth, high -demand, projecting skills shortages, and/or vital to the regional economy. 4. Training Delivery Flexibility— Policies and procedures that foster and support the inclusion of various types of training delivery that expand opportunities for consumer choice. 5. Quality— Ensure a comprehensive list of quality training programs that meet minimum performance standards, and provide industry -valued skills in priority industry sectors. Information must be accurate, transparent, accessible, and user-friendly. 6. Respect for Local Autonomy —The policy remains supportive of the autonomy WIOA grants to the Local Boards. In addition, this policy and Local Board policies should align with the three policy objectives outlined in the California Unified Strategic Workforce Development Plan: 1. Fostering demand -driven skills attainment —Workforce and education programs need to align program content with the state's industry sector needs so as to provide California's employers and businesses with the skilled workforce necessary to compete in the global economy. 2. Enabling upward mobility for all Californians — Workforce and education programs need to be accessible for all Californians, especially populations with barriers to employment, and ensure that everyone has access to a marketable set of skills, and is Page 3 of 5 EXHIBIT C able to access the level of education necessary to get a good job that ensures both long- term economic self-sufficiency and economic security. 3. Aligning, coordinating, and integrating programs and services —Workforce and education programs must economize limited resources to achieve scale and impact, while also providing the right services to clients, based on each client's particular and potentially unique needs, including any needs for skills -development. This policy establishes the types of allowable training services, consumer choice, the difference between the state and local ETPL, the requirement for Local Boards to establish a ETPL policy, eligibility criteria and procedures for initial and continued eligibility for CA ETPL training providers and programs, the federally mandated Eligible Training Provider Performance Report (ETP Report), and the roles and responsibilities of the Local Boards and the EDD in maintaining the integrity of the CA ETPL.

Introduction ATTACHMENT 1 This policy establishes the types of allowable training services, consumer choice, the difference between the state and local Eligible Training Provider List (ETPL), the requirement for Local Workforce Development Boards (Local Boards) to establish an ETPL policy, eligibility criteria and procedures for initial and continued eligibility for Eligible Training Providers (ETP) and programs, the federally mandated Eligible Training Provider Performance Report (ETP Report), and the roles and responsibilities of the Local Boards and the Employment Development Department (EDD) in maintaining the integrity of the state ETPL. This document contains detailed information on initial and continued eligibility requirements, and the roles and responsibilities of the Local Boards, and the EDD in maintaining the integrity of the state ETPL and the quality of the training programs offered on it. B. Allowable Types of Training Services The following are the allowable types of training for the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) Title I program: a. Occupational skills training, including nontraditional employment. b. On -the -Job Training (OJT). c. Incumbent Worker Training (IWT). d. Programs that combine workplace training with related instruction, which may include cooperative education programs. e. Training programs operated by the private sector. f. Skill upgrading and retraining. g. Entrepreneurial training. h. Job readiness training provided in combination with the training services described in (a) through (g) above. I. Adult education and literacy activities, including activities of English language acquisition and integrated education and training programs, provided concurrently or in combination with services provided with the training services described in (a) through (g) above. j. Customized training conducted with a commitment by an employer, or group of employers, to employ an individual upon successful completion of the training. While all of the above are allowable training services under WIOA, service types b, c, and j are not required to be on the ETPL. C. State and Local ETPLs Local Boards and the EDD are responsible for working together to identify ETPs for the state ETPL. The state ETPL creates a pool of ETPs that Local Boards can utilize to establish their local ETPL. In California, the state ETPL is called the California (CA) ETPL. Each Local Board must maintain a local list of training providers and programs. Local Boards may add additional local requirements for providers and/or programs (except for WSD21-03 Page 2 of 21 ETPL POLICY AND PROCEDURES ATTACHMENT 1 apprenticeship programs) to be eligible on the local ETPL. Local Boards must include all CA ETPL approved apprenticeship programs on their local ETPL. Adding additional local requirements may result in providers that are on the CA ETPL, but may not be eligible for inclusion on the local ETPL. While additional requirements may be added for the local ETPL, Local Boards may only include training providers on their list that are approved for the CA ETPL. If the Local Board is reviewing provider and/or program applications for inclusion on the ETPL, the Local Board must conduct the state eligibility review first, and then determine eligibility for inclusion on their local ETPL. When conducting the state eligibility review, the Local Board must do so using only the state's requirements, and not the Local Board's additional requirements. Local Boards that do not add additional requirements must include all of the providers/programs on the CA ETPL on their local ETPL, whereas Local Boards with additional requirements may have a subset of the state list as depicted in the diagram below: Note — Providers on the local ETPL must be on the CA ETPL. Note —Additional functionality is being added to the CaIJOBSsr, system to enable Local Boards to identify the training providers and programs approved for their local ETPL. D. Local Board Policy Each Local Board must develop local policies that provide sufficient consumer protection and oversight of training providers. These policies must meet the minimum requirements of the procedures outlined in this Directive, and may include additional requirements as deemed appropriate by the Local Board. Such policies must include, but are not limited to, processes that achieve the following: Ensure participants can avail themselves of, and are made aware of, grievance/complaint procedures. Please reference Workforce Services Directive WIOA Grievance and Complaint Resolution Procedures (WSD18-05) for guidance. Y Recover WIOA training funds. Please reference Recovery of WIOA Tuition and Training WSD21-03 Page 3 of 21 ETPL POLICY AND PROCEDURES ATTACHMENT 1 Refunds (WSD19-10) for guidance on recovering training funds. • Outline any additional eligibility requirements providers and/or programs (except apprenticeship programs) must meet to be listed on the local ETPL. o These requirements must support the creation of a list that ensures provider performance, job -driven training, informed consumer choice, continuous improvement, and cost-effective investment of public funds. o Requirements may include, but are not limited to: ■ Additional performance requirements. ■ Program location. ■ Accreditation requirements. ■ Cost. Include the timeline for initial and continued eligibility review for inclusion on the local ETPL. o Continued eligibility review for the CA ETPL must be completed annually, and review for the local ETPL must be completed at least once every two years. o Within the federally required timeline in the previous bullet, Local Boards have discretion on when they conduct initial and continued eligibility for inclusion on the local ETPL. The following are just a few examples of options for local review: • Review entire local ETPL every two years. ■ Review each provider/program annually. ■ Review on the anniversary of when the provider/program established continued eligibility on the local ETPL. • Process for delisting training provider/programs from the local ETPL. • Provide comparable training opportunities if the training provider goes out of business. If the training provider is a Bureau of Private Postsecondary Education (BPPE) approved provider, the policy should include the requirement to coordinate with BPPE's Office of Student Assistant Relief. Ensure training programs lead to at least one of the following: 1) credentials and/or certificates valued by employers, or 2) training -related employment as a result of gaining measurable technical skills for a specific occupation. This requirement ensures that training programs lead to high -quality jobs, as described in the California Unified Strategic Workforce Development Plan. Job quality serves the workforce development system and broader public sector by protecting investments in training. Please see ETPL Definitions (Attachment 2) for a definition of a postsecondary credential, as well as a definition of a training program that leads to employment. o Please note, a program on the ETPL that only leads to employment will negatively affect a Local Board's Credential Attainment rate, since all individuals in an education or training program are included in the measure. Please refer to CaIIOBSActivity Codes (WSD19-06) Attachment 3 for a list of activity codes that place individuals into the Credential Attainment performance measure. WSD21-03 Page 4 of 21 ETPL POLICY AND PROCEDURES ATTACHMENT 1 • Verify and document participant attendance at regular intervals throughout the length of the training program. Per WSD19-10, the Local Board should check with the training provider to ensure clients are still in the training program each month. If not able to check monthly, the Local Board must check at least quarterly. • Require providers to maintain sufficient records and to make these records available for monitoring or audit by either the Local Board and/or the state. • Ensure there are no conflicts of interest between the Local Board and the provider, which includes, but is not limited to the following: o A prohibition on the payment of referral fees by training providers to Local Board staff, including America's Job Center of CaliforniasM (AJCC) operator staff. o Decisions made by the Local Board regarding ETPs and their programs is in compliance with WIOA Section 107(h). • Outline the requirement of the Local Board to keep all training provider and program eligibility documents (either physical or electronic), and the process to provide them to the EDD within five business days, if requested. • Explain the Local ETPL Coordinator's responsibilities, which, at minimum, must include the following: o Requirement to provide technical assistance to all training providers with programs located within the Local Workforce Development Area (Local Area) seeking to be listed on the CA ETPL. o Requirement for reviewing and approving or denying providers and programs for initial eligibility in a timely manner: ■ The review must include eligibility for the CA ETPL that meets requirements outlined in this Directive. ■ The review must include eligibility for the local ETPL that meets requirements outlined in the Local Board's local ETPL policy. o Requirement for reviewing and approving or denying providers and programs for continued eligibility in a timely manner: • The review must include eligibility for the CA ETPL that meets requirements outlined in this Directive. ■ The review must include eligibility for the local ETPL that meets requirements outlined in the Local Board's local ETPL policy. o Method and timeline for notifying providers if they or their programs) are removed from the CA and/or local ETPL. • Describe the appeal process that meets the requirements outlined in this Directive. In addition, Local Board policies shall include the following for training providers who are deemed exempt per California Education Code (CEC) Section 94874, and are not regionally accredited by an accrediting institution: • Verification of the instructor's credentials or experience. WSD21-03 Page 5 of 21 ETPL POLICY AND PROCEDURES ATTACHMENT 1 • Ensure the financial stability of the training provider. • Annual inspection of the schools or training programs. • Ensure actual instruction is taking place. • Ensure instructional equipment and instruction meet current industry standards. Local Boards may delegate their responsibility of the ETPL to another Local Board to act on their behalf in making nominations for training providers and programs to be listed on the CA ETPL, and the creation of their local ETPL. To delegate, or cancel an existing delegation, please complete and submit the ETPL Local Board Delegation and Cancelation Form (Attachment 3). Any Local Boards that delegate their ETPL responsibilities to another Local Board must complete this form annually between July 11, and July 301. Due to the signature requirement (physical or electronic signature), this form should be emalled as an attachment. E. Consumer Choice Training services must be provided in a manner that maximizes informed consumer choice in selecting an eligible provider and program. Each Local Board must make the local ETPL available to customers. Additionally, the Local Board must make available information identifying ETPs for OJT, customized training, and ]WT. After consultation with a career planner, an individual who has been determined eligible for training services may select an ETP from the Local Board's local ETPL. Unless the program has exhausted training funds for the program year, the Local Board must refer the individual to the selected provider, and establish an Individual Training Account (ITA) for the individual to pay for training. A referral may be carried out by providing a voucher or certificate to the individual to obtain training. The cost of the referral of an individual with an ITA to a training provider is paid by the applicable Adult, Dislocated Worker, or Youth program. F. CA ETPL Application Process For a provider to be listed on the CA ETPL, the provider must have its information entered into the CaIJOBS ETPL module. It is the Local ETPL Coordinator's role to provide assistance and guidance to training providers who register in CaIJOBS. Once all necessary information is entered, the Local ETPL Coordinator must review and nominate the training provider and/or program to the State ETPL Coordinator for inclusion on the CA ETPL ensuring all information provided is complete, accurate, and current, and is in alignment with this Directive. The EDD will review applications for the CA ETPL within 30 days of receipt from the Local Board. WSD21-03 Page 6 of 21 ETPL POLICY AND PROCEDURES ATTACHMENT 1 Once the provider and/or program is approved and included on the CA ETPL, the Local Board must review, and approve or deny the training provider for inclusion on their local ETPL ensuring all information is in alignment with their Local Board policy. ETPL Application Process by Provider Category 1. In -State Training Provider All training providers that have a training site(s) in CA and wish to be listed on the CA ETPL are required to be registered in CaIJOBS. The training provider shall provide all the training provider information required in the CaIJOBS ETPL module. The training provider must upload a signed CA ETPAssurances Form (Attachment 4) to the documents section of the Provider Profile in CalJOBS. If the in -state training provider is a Department of Labor (DOL) Registered Apprenticeship or California Department of Industrial Relations (DIR), Division of Apprenticeship Standards (DAS) approved apprenticeship, please see the Training Provider Initial Eligibility section below. Local Boards must review and nominate a provider headquartered in their Local Area for the CA ETPL if the provider meets state eligibility requirements. If a provider has multiple locations, the Local Board(s) in the area of the provider locations must nominate the program(s) to the State ETPL Coordinator. 2. Distance Education Training Providers All Distance Education training providers that wish to be listed on the CA ETPL are required to be registered in CaIJOBS. The training provider shall provide all the training provider information required in the CaIJOBS ETPL module. The training provider must upload a signed CA ETPAssurances Form (Attachment 4) to the documents section of the Provider Profile in CaIJOBS. The State ETPL Coordinator will determine if a Distance Education training provider is eligible to be on the CA ETPL using the eligibility criteria in this Directive. If a Local ETPL Coordinator is contacted by a Distance Education training provider, the provider should be referred to wsbetpl@edd.ca.gov for assistance. 3. Out -of -State Training Providers All training providers, other than Distance Education training providers, that have training sites located only outside of CA cannot be listed on the CA ETPL. Local Boards cannot utilize an ITA with out-of-state training providers unless leveraging an approved ETPL reciprocal agreement. Please see ETPL Reciprocal Agreements (WSD22-08) for more information on the use of approved agreements. Please reference the CaIJOBS ETPL Module Guide Card (located on the Staff Online Resources page in CaIJOBS) for detailed information on the CaIJOBS process for registering new training providers. WSD21-03 Page 7 of 21 ETPL POLICY AND PROCEDURES G. CA ETPL Initial Eligibility ATTACHMENT 1 Training Provider Initial Eligibility Criteria Initial eligibility applies to providers previously not listed on the CA ETPL under the WIOA or the Workforce Investment Act of 1998 (WIA). The initial eligibility period is one year (365 days). The Local ETPL Coordinator is responsible for reviewing the training provider's initial eligibility prior to nominating for inclusion on the CA ETPL. The following institution types are eligible for inclusion on the CA ETPL: 1. Adult education secondary schools, as long as the activities are provided in combination with occupational skills training. 2. Pre -apprenticeship and apprenticeship providers. 3. Private postsecondary institutions. 4. Public postsecondary institutions. The initial eligibility process for each for the training provider types listed above is based on the following: 1. Adult Education Secondary Schools Training providers must be an eligible provider of adult education and literacy activities under Title II of WIOA. Adult education and/or literacy activities must be offered concurrently, or in combination with, occupational skills training. A list of Title II providers can be found on the California Department of Education (CDE) website. 2. Pre -apprenticeship and Apprenticeship Providers a. Pre -apprenticeship Provider Training providers must have a letter of commitment from a DOL registered or DIR DAS approved apprenticeship program, To be listed on the CA ETPL, the pre -apprenticeship program must award an industry -recognized credential or certificate. The state will not enter information on pre -apprenticeship training programs; this information will be entered by Local Boards, if necessary. Pre -apprenticeship programs are considered Individualized Career Services under WIOA, and thus are not required to be on the ETPL. Pre -apprenticeship programs that do not result in an industry -recognized credential or certificate cannot be listed on the ETPL; however, those pre -apprenticeship programs that do provide an industry -recognized certificate or credential can be listed on the ETPL and used in conjunction with an ITA. The California Workforce Development Board (State Board) and each Local Board must ensure that federal WIOA funds awarded for pre -apprenticeship training in the building and construction trades fund programs and services that follow the Multi -Craft Core Curriculum (MC3) implemented by the CDE and that develop a plan to help increase the representation of women in those trades. WIOA prohibits Title I funds from being used for "construction, purchase of facilities or buildings, or other capital expenditures for improvements to land or buildings except with WSD21-03 Page 8 of 21 ETPL POLICY AND PROCEDURES ATTACHMENT 1 prior approval." b. DOL Registered Apprenticeships and DIR DAS Approved Apprenticeships DOL registered apprenticeships and DIR DAS approved apprenticeships are automatically eligible to be listed on the CA ETPL and do not have any eligibility requirements. The state will reach out to new apprenticeship programs to inform them of the opportunity to join the CA ETPL. If the provider opts into the ETPL, the apprenticeship program will be placed on the ETPL by the state. The State Board and Local Boards shall, to the maximum extent feasible, coordinate their pre -apprenticeship and apprenticeship training programs with one or more DIR DAS approved apprenticeship for the occupation and geographic area. 3. Private Postsecondary Institutions (for -profit or non-profit) Training providers be must be accredited by the Accrediting Commission for Schools (ACS) Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC); the WASC Senior College and University Commission (WSCUC); have current BPPE Approval to Operate; current Verification of Exemption by BPPE; or are deemed exempt per California Education Code (CEC) Section 94874. Note that providers who are deemed exempt are not required to have a Verification of Exemption. However, if EDD is unable to determine the specific exemption that the provider falls under, then EDD reserves the right to request that the provider obtain a Verification of Exemption from the BPPE. Providers that fall under exemptions (a), (d), (f), or (h) of CEC Section 94874 are not eligible for the ETPL. A Distance Education provider without a physical presence in California that offers postsecondary distance education to California students for a fee must be registered with the BPPE. Private Distance Education higher education institutions that are degree granting, non-profit, and accredited are not required to register with BPPE, but must be accredited by the ACS WASC, the WSCUC, or an agency recognised by the U.S. Department of Education. For more information on the BPPE Out -of -State Institution registration, please see the BPPE Out -of -State Institution Registration webpage. For a directory of accredited schools, please visit ACS WASC and WSCUC. For more Information regarding BPPE Approval to Operate, or current Verification of Exemption, please visit the BPPE website. If the training provider has a BPPE Approval to Operate, Verification of Exemption, or Out -of -State Institution Registration, the document must be uploaded to the documents section of the Provider Profile in CaIJOBS. 4. Public Postsecondary Institutions a. Public Postsecondary Community Colleges WSD21-03 Page 9 of 21 ETPL POLICY AND PROCEDURES ATTACHMENT 1 Training providers must be accredited by the WASC Accrediting Commission for Community and Junior Colleges (ACCJC). The following website can be utilized to search for the WASC AMC accredited colleges: WASC ACJCC. For public postsecondary community colleges not WASC AMC accredited, but are currently in the initial accreditation process, the Local Board can nominate the training provider, and the State Board and the EDD will determine whether the community college meets the training provider initial eligibility criteria. b. CA State University (CSU) and University of CA (UC) Training providers must be accredited by the WSCUC. The following website can be utilized to search for WSCUC accredited colleges: WSCUC, In addition to the above requirements, all training providers (with the exception of apprenticeship programs) must meet the following: All training providers are subject to the Equal Opportunity and Nondiscrimination requirements found in Section 188 of WIOA. All Local Boards must ensure a training provider is in compliance prior to nominating the training provider to be on the CA ETPL. Equal Opportunity and Non -Discrimination procedures should be posted at the AJCC and approved training providers' facilities, and provided to each participant upon enrollment in a CA ETPL training program. It is critical for Local Boards to utilize EDD- provided monitoring tools to evaluate the providers, and to upload appropriate documents to the Documents section of the Provider Profile in CaIJOBS. It is also important to note that all site locations for a provider must be in compliance with WIOA Section 188. For more information, refer to Nondiscrimination and Equal Opportunity Procedures (WSD17-01). Provide information supporting the provider's partnership with business. This may include information about the quality and quantity of employer partnerships. Enter program(s) of training services into CaIJOBS. The training provider should only enter the program(s) desired to be on the CA ETPL. If the program is offered with multiple modes of delivery, curriculum, or course lengths, the program must be entered separately for each variation. Please reference ETPL Definitions (Attachment 2) for the definition of a Training Program. A signed copy of the CA ETP Assurances Form (Attachment 4) is uploaded to the Documents section of the Provider Profile in CaIJOBS. This form must be uploaded annually, prior to the provider being reviewed for eligibility. Once the training provider completes the CA ETPL application on CaIJOBS, the Local ETPL Coordinator is responsible for reviewing the provider's information and either denying their inclusion on the CA ETPL, or nominating them for review by the State ETPL Coordinator through the CaIJOBS approval process. The Local ETPL Coordinator must review and nominate, or deny a training provider profile within 30 days of the completed application date. WSD21-03 Page 10 of 21 ETPL POLICY AND PROCEDURES ATTACHMENT 1 The Local Board that contains the headquarters of the provider is responsible for nominating the provider profile. Please reference the Approval or Denial of Training Provider/Program section of this attachment for additional information. Training Program Initial Eligibility Criteria Initial eligibility applies to a program previously not listed on the CA ETPL underthe WIOA or the WIA. The initial eligibility period is one year (365 days). After a training provider meets the training provider initial eligibility criteria listed above, been nominated by the Local Board, and approved by the State ETPL Coordinator, each individual training program must meet the following requirements to be listed on the CA ETPL: The training program must be for occupations in in -demand industry sectors identified by the state, region, or Local Board. In -demand or priority industry sector information must be verified with the State Board and/or Local Board. The training program provides training services that lead to an industry -recognized credential, national or state certificate, or degree, including all industry appropriate competencies, licensing and/or certification requirements, or employment in a specific occupation after receiving measurable technical skills. Please note the training program does not have to issue the credential, but the training program should prepare the individual to obtain the credential. For example, a Class A Truck Driving program does not issue the Class A driver's license, but it should prepare the individual to pass the state -issued exam to obtain the license. For more information on if a training leads to an industry -recognized credential, please see DOL's Credential Attainment Decision Tree. • The cost in the Cost Details tab in the program wizard should match the cost of a member of the general public enrolling in the program without assistance from WIOA. This information should be available in the provider's brochure or website. If the Local Board works out a different cost with the provider, then the cost information in the training activity code will need to be updated to reflect the different cost. • The mode of instruction, and class schedule(s) are consistent with the provider's advertised brochure/website. If a program is offered with multiple modes of instruction (e.g., online and in -person) or durations, the program needs to be entered separately for each variation. • For providers with a BPPE Approval to Operate, the training program and its location are BPPE approved'. • For WASC accredited training providers where the program's instruction and/or curriculum development is entirely sub -contracted to another entity or third party vendor, the training provider directly receiving tuition and related instruction fees 1 For providers with a BPPE Approval to Operate, not all BPPE training programs are automatically eligible to be listed on the CA ETPL. WSD21-03 Page 11 of 21 ETPL POLICY AND PROCEDURES ATTACHMENT 1 (e.g., ITA) must meet the requirements outlined in this directive, and register in CalJOBS as a provider. See ETPL Definitions (Attachment 2) for the definition of third - party subcontracting and what is considered allowable. • Program must provide and meet the following performance metrics based on aggregate data for all students in the program to ensure the program supports the ability for the individual to obtain an industry -recognized postsecondary credential, and/or employment upon completion of the program. The provider must provide performance data for the prior complete program year (July 1—June 30). o Public Postsecondary Community Colleges, CSUs, UCs, and Adult Education Secondary Schools are required to provide performance information for consideration of placement on the CA ETPL, but due to heavy state oversight, investment, and the inability to capture true program outcome data, these institution types are not required to meet a specific performance threshold to be listed on the CA ETPL. The following performance data must be provided and listed in CaIJOBS: ■ Of individuals that exited the program, the percentage who successfully completed the training program (did not withdraw or transfer out of the program). ■ Of individuals that successfully completed the training program, the percentage who are employed within six months of graduating from the training program. For occupations for which the state requires passing an examination, the six month period begins after the announcement of the examination results for the first examination available after a student completes the program. Private Postsecondary Institutions are required to meet and provide the following performance data in CaIJOBS: ■ Of individuals who exited the program, 50% successfully completed the training program (did not withdraw or transfer out of the program). ■ Of individuals who successfully completed the training program, 50% are employed within six months of graduating from the training program. For occupations for which the state requires passing an examination, the six month period begins after the announcement of the examination results for the first examination available after a student completes the program. Please note —Apprenticeship programs are not subject to program initial eligibility criteria. Once the training provider enters the program into CaIJOBS, the Local ETPL Coordinator is responsible for reviewing the program information and either denying their inclusion on the CA ETPL, or nominating them for review by the State ETPL Coordinator through the CaIJOBS approval process. The Local ETPL Coordinator must review and nominate, or deny a training program within 30 days of the completed application date. WSD21-03 Page 12 of 21 ETPL POLICY AND PROCEDURES ATTACHMENT 1 The Local Board where the program is located is responsible for nominating the program. Please reference the Approval or Denial of Training Provider/Program section of this attachment for additional information. For more information regarding the training provider and program initial eligibility process, please refer to the CA ETPL Training Provider and Program Determination Flowchart (Attachment 5). H. CA ETPL Continued Eligibility Criteria Training Provider Continued Eligibility Criteria Continued eligibility applies to all training providers listed on the CA ETPL at any time under the WIOA or WIA, and whose initial eligibility has expired. A training provider's initial and continued eligibility is valid for 365 days after the provider is approved for the ETPL. Since providers can be reviewed year-round, all active training providers on the CA ETPL will be evaluated annually by the EDD no earlier than 60 days, and no later than 30 days prior to the provider's eligibility expiration date to ensure they continue to meet eligibility to be retained on the CA ETPL. To determine continued eligibility, the EDD must verify that the training provider continues to meet the requirements outlined in the Training Provider Initial Eligibility Criteria section of this Directive. DOL registered apprenticeships and DIR DAS approved apprenticeships do not have any continued eligibility requirements and will remain on the ETPL. It is recommended that apprenticeships update their program information annually. in addition, providers on the CA ETPL for two full program years (July 1 —June 30) must have at least one Title i, subtitle B enrollment during the previous two program years. If removed due to enrollment requirements, a provider must wait six (6) months from removal to submit their ETPL application for reinstatement and will not be held to the enrollment requirement when determining continued eligibility for placement back onto the list. Training Program Continued Eligibility Criteria Continued eligibility applies to all training programs listed on the CA ETPL at any time under the WIOA or WIA and whose initial eligibility has expired. A training program's initial and continued eligibility is valid for 365 days after the program is approved for the ETPL. Since programs can be reviewed year-round, all active training programs on the CA ETPL will be evaluated annually by the Local Board no earlier than 60 days, and no later than 30 days prior to the program's eligibility expiration date to ensure they continue to meet eligibility to be retained on the CA ETPL. Training providers must reapply for WIOA program certification using CaI10BS. All applications for continued eligibility of training programs will be evaluated as they are received, by the Local Board and EDD, to ensure they continue to meet eligibility to be retained on the CA ETPL. The Local Board where the program is located is responsible for evaluating the program. WSD21-03 Page 13 of 21 ETPL POLICY AND PROCEDURES ATTACHMENT 1 After a training provider has met the training provider continued eligibility criteria listed above, each individual training program must meet the following requirements to retain their listing on the CA ETPL: • Training program information is reviewed and updated in CaIJOBS. • Training program meets all requirements outlined above in the Training Program Initial Eligibility Criteria section of this attachment. CA ETPL training programs must meet performance metrics to retain their eligibility on the ETPL. The EDD will negotiate with DOL to establish yearly performance goals based on the WIOA primary indicators of performance. For continued eligibility, CA ETPL training programs (with the exception of apprenticeship programs, Adult Education programs, Community Colleges, UCs and CSUs) must meet or exceed the performance metrics required in initial eligibility, as well as the negotiated state -level Title I Adult performance goals. The EDD will publish the state -level negotiated performance goals in a Workforce Services Information Notice located on the EDD website. The continued eligibility performance calculations for each program is based on WIOA participant performance, and is verified using the federal ETP Report published annually by the state. Providers are required to collect and submit aggregate performance data for all students to EDD. The following outlines the performance metrics for continued eligibility: o The program must meet the following performance metric for all students for the most recent complete program year (July 1—June 30): • Of individuals who exited the program, 50% successfully completed (did not withdraw or transfer) the program. o The program must meet the following performance metrics for WIOA participants for the most recent complete program year (July 1—June 30)2: ■ Employment Rate 21d Quarter after Exit meets the state's negotiated goal for the Title I Adult program. ■ Employment Rate 0 Quarter after Exit meets the state's negotiated goal for the Title I Adult program. ■ Median Earnings meet the state's negotiated goal for the Title I Adult program. ■ Credential Attainment meets the state's negotiated goal for the Title I Adult program (if applicable). ■ Measurable Skill Gains meets the state's negotiated goal for the Title I Adult program. Z With the exception of completers, providers will be held accountable for the performance measures in which two complete years of data is available for their program(s) on the ETP Report. WSD21-03 Page 14 of 21 ETPL POLICY AND PROCEDURES ATTACHMENT 1 Please see CalJOBS ETPL Module Guide Card (located on the Staff Online Resources page in CaIJOBS) for instructions on how providers reapply for WIOA program certification in CaIJOBS. For detailed information regarding the definitions and calculations of the WIOA primary indicators of performance, please see Performance Guidance (WSD22-01). Please refer to the CA ETPL Training Provider and Program Determination Flowchart (Attachment 5) to determine if a training provider and its program(s) meet the continued eligibility criteria to remain on the CA ETPL. I. Approval and Denial of Training Provider/Program Approval of Training Provider/Program After reviewing to ensure the provider/program meets the eligibility criteria above, the Local Board can nominate the training provider/program to the state for review. If nominating the provider to the State ETPL Coordinator, the signed CA ETP Assurances Form (Attachment 4) must be uploaded to the documents section of the Provider Profile in CaIJOBS. The State ETPL Coordinator will review providers within 30 days of their nomination by the Local Board. The EDD will review the provider/program's information to ensure it meets all initial or continued eligibility requirements outlined in this Directive. If eligible, the State ETPL Coordinator will approve the provider/program for the CA ETPL, and notify the Local ETPL Coordinator. if the Local Board has additional local ETPL eligibility requirements, the Local ETPL Coordinator must review all CA ETPL approved distance education programs, as well as all in- state CA ETPL approved programs located in the Regional Planning Unit for inclusion on their local ETPL. If the Local Board does not have additional local ETPL eligibility requirements, all approved CA ETPL programs must be included on the Local Board's local ETPL. Denial of a Training Provider/Program After review, if a Local Board determines the training provider/program does not meet the requirements to be listed on the CA ETPL, the Local Board must inform the training provider in writing with the reason(s) for the denial, and provide information on the Local Board appeal process within 30 days of receipt of the application. A copy of the written notification provided to the provider must be uploaded to the documents section of the Provider Profile in CaIJOBS within 10 business days of issuance. If the Local Board nominates a provider/program to the state for review, but upon review, the State ETPL Coordinator denies the training provider/program listing on the CA ETPL, the EDD must inform the Local Board of the denial and the reason(s) for the denial within 30 days of receipt of the nomination. The Local Board must in turn inform the training provider in writing with the reason(s) for the denial, and information on the Local Board appeal process within 30 WSD21-03 Page 15 of 21 ETPL POLICY AND PROCEDURES ATTACHMENT 1 days of receipt of the EDD's decision. A copy of the written notification provided to the provider must be uploaded to the document section of the Provider Profile in CaIJOBS within 10 business days of issuance. If the training provider is able to rectify the issue that caused the denial, the Local Board can review the information and resubmit to the State ETPL Coordinator for review. For example, if a provider is denied solely because the CA ETP Assurances Form (Attachment 4) was not uploaded to CaIJOBS, the State ETPL Coordinator would notify the Local Board, which would notify the provider. The Local Board can then nominate the provider again once the form is uploaded to CaIJOBS. The training provider's request to be on the CA ETPL must be denied if the training provider fails to provide complete information, intentionally provides inaccurate information, or has substantially violated any WIOA requirement(s). If the EDD, in consultation with the nominating Local Board, determines a training provider intentionally supplied inaccurate information or violated any WIOA requirement(s), the EDD or the Local Board shall deny the training provider's application for the CA ETPL, and the training provider is not allowed to be reconsidered for inclusion on the CA ETPL for at least two years. If approved for inclusion on the CA ETPL, but the Local ETPL Coordinator determines the training provider/program does not meet their local ETPL requirements, the Local Board must inform the training provider in writing with the reason(s) for the denial, and information on the Local Board appeal process within 30 days of receipt of the application. A copy of the written notification provided to the provider must be uploaded to the documents section of the Provider Profile in CaIJOBS within 10 business days of issuance. J. Delisting Training Providers/Programs To ensure the integrity of the CA ETPL, the Local Board or the EDD will remove a training provider or program from the CA ETPL at any time for the items below: 1. The training provider will be immediately removed from the CA ETPL for any of the following reasons until such time as they meet continued eligibility. A provider who has been removed from the list for any of the following reasons is liable to repay all Adult and Dislocated Worker training funds received during the period of noncompliance: a. The training provider has lost its accreditation or its approval to operate from its regulating agency. b. A private postsecondary training provider no longer meets the exempt criteria per CEC Section 94874, or the provider's Verification of Exemption by BPPE (if required by the EDD) expired or is revoked, and the provider does not have a new Verification of Exemption, or BPPE Approval to Operate. c. The nonprofit Community Based Organization no longer qualifies under Section 501(c)(3) of the Federal Internal Revenue Code. d. The apprenticeship program is no longer registered with the DOL under the National Apprenticeship Act, or is no longer approved by DIR DAS. The State WSD21-03 Page 16 of 21 ETPL POLICY AND PROCEDURES ATTACHMENT 1 ETPL Coordinator is responsible for removing apprenticeship programs. e. The pre -apprenticeship program no longer has a Letter of Commitment from a DOL registered or DIR DAS approved apprenticeship program, or no longer leads to an industry -recognized postsecondary credential. f. It is determined the provider sub -contracted instruction of the program to another entity without approval from WASC or BPPE. See ETPL Definitions (Attachment 2) for the definition of third -party subcontracting. g. The provider is not in compliance with WIOA Section 188. A training provider will be immediately removed from the CA ETPL for a period of no less than two years for any of the reasons listed in this section. A provider who has been removed from the list for any of the following reasons is liable to repay all Adult and Dislocated Worker training funds received during the period of noncompliance: a. The state identifies the Local Board and training provider are participating in pay -to -play activities (commonly known as kickbacks) that include, but are not limited to: the Local Board received monetary or gift exchanges for (or in the hope for) referrals to a specific training provider, and/or exchanges of money or gifts to have the training provider listed on ETPL. As part of the annual on -site monitoring of Local Boards, if it is determined the Local Board is engaging in pay -to -play activities, a corrective action is required, and failure to take timely action to be in compliance may result in decertification of the Local Board involved. b. It is determined the training provider falsely reported information. c. The training provider substantially violated a provision of Title I of WIOA, or its implementing regulations. d. The training provider's top level leadership (e.g., owner, CEO, Director, etc.) is convicted of violating any federal or state law associated to the operation of the institution. The EDD, in coordination with the Local Board, can remove a provider for any of the following reasons. Reactivation to the list is at the discretion of the State ETPL Coordinator and the Local Board: a. It is determined the provider is not serving or providing value to WIOA participants, and is listed on the CA ETPL solely for other purposes, such as the utilization of Workers' Compensation Supplemental Job Displacement Benefit vouchers. b. The provider has not served at least one Title I, subtitle B enrollment during the previous two program years. See "Training Provider Continued Eligibility Criteria" for requirements to be reinstated to the ETPL. c. The provider's CaIJOBS profile and/or program information is inaccurate or incomplete. d. The training provider has not demonstrated a good faith effort in providing the ETP Report data to the EDD. e. The provider no longer wishes to be listed on the CA ETPL. WSD21-03 Page 17 of 21 ETPL POLICY AND PROCEDURES ATTACHMENT 1 4. In an effort to safeguard WIOA funds, the training provider will be suspended from the CA ETPL if the training provider is under any federal, state, or local investigation. During the period of suspension, no new enrollments may occur, but the training provider can continue to serve existing WIOA funded enrollments. Once the investigation is complete, a review of the findings by the state will determine if the provider can be reinstated to the CA ETPL. If a training provider/program is removed from the CA ETPL, the EDD must inform the Local Board of the denial and the reason(s) for the delisting within 30 days of the removal. The Local Board must in turn inform the training provider in writing with the reason(s) for the delisting, and provide information on the Local Board appeal process within 30 days of receipt of the EDD's decision. A copy of the written notification provided to the provider must be uploaded to the document section of the Provider Profile in CaIJOBS within 10 business days of issuance. All training provider/programs removed from the CA ETPL must be removed from the local ETPL immediately upon notification from the EDD, as any new enrollments into a training program not eligible to be on the CA ETPL will result in disallowed costs. It is the responsibility of the EDD and the Local Board to work together to ensure any participants currently enrolled in a training program removed under items 1 and 2 experience minimal disruption. If the training provider or program is removed due to items 1, 3, or 4, any participants already enrolled (attended at least one day of instruction) can continue participation in the program until the training is complete, but no new enrollments may occur. Please see WSD19-10 for additional information regarding the recovery of training funds. K. Placing Delisted Training Providers/Programs Back on the ETPL Requests to be placed back on the CA ETPL must be submitted through the Local Board (unless the provider is a Distance Education or apprenticeship program). The training provider and program(s) must meet all criteria outlined in the CA ETPL Continued Eligibility Criteria section of this attachment to be placed back on the CA ETPL. If the training provider is removed for item 2 of the Delisting Training Providers/Programs section of this directive, two years must have passed from the time of their removal before they can be placed back onto the CA ETPL. If the training provider is removed for item 3(b) of the Delisting Training Providers/Programs section, the provider must wait 6 months from the date of removal before submitting an ETPL application for reinstatement. L. Appeals Appeals to the Local Board Each Local Board must have a written appeal process for the CA and local ETPL that includes the following required provisions: WSD21-03 Page 18 of 21 ETPL POLICY AND PROCEDURES ATTACHMENT 1 • Instructions for a training provider wishing to appeal a decision. The training provider must appeal to the Local Board in writing within 30 days of the issuance of the denial or delisting notice. The appeal must include a statement of the desire to appeal, specification of the training program(s) in question, the reason(s) for the appeal (i.e., grounds), documentation supporting the grounds for the appeal, and the signature of the appropriate training provider official. • An initial informal meeting between the Local Board staff and the training provider.

The hearing officer shall be an impartial person. The hearing officer shall provide written notice to the concerned parties of the date, time, and place of the hearing at least ten calendar days in advance of the scheduled hearing. Both parties shall have the opportunity to present oral and written testimony under oath, to call and question witnesses, request documents relevant to the proceedings, and have legal representation. • The hearing officer's final decisions must be made within 60 days of receipt of the appeal, and the training provider and the Local Board notified in writing of the final decision. • A copy of the final decision must be emailed to the State ETPL Coordinator (wsbetpl@edd.ca.gov), and the Local ETPL Coordinator must upload the final decision to the Provider Profile section of CaIJOBS. Appeals to EDD Distance Education and Apprenticeship programs can appeal directly to the EDD. All other training provider may appeal to the EDD only if the local appeal process has been exhausted, and the provider is dissatisfied with the Local Board's final decision. • A training provider wishing to appeal a Local Board's decision must submit a written appeal to the EDD within 30 days from the date of the Local Board's final decision. The request for appeal must include a statement of the desire to appeal, specification of the training program in question, the reason(s) for the appeal (i.e., grounds), Local Board's final decision document, and the signature of the appropriate training provider official.

WSD21-03 Page 19 of 21 ETPL POLICY AND PROCEDURES ATTACHMENT 1 M. Maintenance of the CA ETPL The EDD is responsible for the maintenance and publishing of the CA ETPL. Local Boards, in turn, are responsible for ensuring all of their AJCC locations have access to the most recent version of the CA and local ETPLs. Local Boards may include additional performance, occupational, and/or industry data to augment the CA ETPL listings on their local ETPL. Local Boards, job seekers, and training providers have access to the CA ETPL on CaIJOBS by clicking the Access California's ETPL and Apprenticeship Providers link from the homepage, or by clicking More Career Services, and then Education Services section. N. ETP Report The WIOA requires the state to submit an ETP Report with the federal WIOA Annual Performance Report on October 1st utilizing a template developed jointly by the DOL and U.S. Department of Education. This report includes all WIOA and non-WIOA participants served by each training program listed on the CA ETPL3. The DOL has made the ETP Report data available to the public via trainingproviderresults.gov. The ETP Report gathers critical information, including the employment, earnings, and credentials obtained by participants in the training program. This information will be widely disseminated to assist participants and members of the general public in identifying effective training providers and programs. This information will also benefit the training provider by providing awareness of their program, and serving as a tool to potentially enhance their programs. All training providers are required to electronically submit the program participant data outlined in the CA ETPAssurances Form (Attachment 4). The state recognizes the reporting burden this causes, and understands the data limitations, so the state will work with training providers based on the available data provided. Data reporting for the annual ETP Report will be a phased approach with the state working collaboratively with Local Boards, and training providers to obtain the required information, Training providers that demonstrate a good faith effort in providing data will not be subject to removal from the ETPL; however, failure to provide any data may result in removal from the CA ETPL. Performance data from the ETP Report will be used for continued eligibility review of all training programs, excluding DOL registered or DIR DAS approved apprenticeships. ®. Technical Assistance and Resources Technical assistance will be provided by BPPE, DIR DAS, Local ETPL Coordinators, and EDD on respective application processes, compliance requirements, and reporting documents. Each Local Board must identify a Local ETPL Coordinator(s) using the Local ETPL Coordinator Contact 3 Apprenticeship programs are excluded from this requirement. WSD21-03 Page 20 of 21 ETPL POLICY AND PROCEDURES ATTACHMENT 1 Form (Attachment 6). The Local Board must provide an updated form if the Local ETPL Coordinator changes, or if the existing coordinator's information changes. Training Providers Training providers may contact the Local ETPL Coordinator in their area with questions regarding the application process and eligibility (initial and continued). For basic ETPL information and a list of Local ETPL Coordinators, refer to the EDD's Eligible Training Provider List located on the EDD website. Private postsecondary training providers can obtain assistance from the BPPE through technical assistance workshops (BPPE Application Workshop and BPPE Compliance Workshop), which assists training providers in completing the BPPE Annual Reports, and online reporting tools. Apprenticeship providers that are registered with either the US DOL or CA DIR DAS and wish to be added to the ETPL should contact the State ETPL Coordinator by email: wsbetpl@edd.ca.gov. Local ETPL Coordinators Local ETPL Coordinators can communicate with the State ETPL Coordinator by email: wsbetpl@edd.ca.gov. The EDD will coordinate webinars and trainings as necessary. Announcements related to the CA ETPL will be made via email to the Local ETPL Coordinators. The CaIJOBS ETPL Module Guide Card (located on the Staff Online Resources page in CalJOBS) provides detailed instructions to assist Local Boards with entering programs into the CaIJOBS ETPL module. The CaIJOBS system includes data entry screens and reports, and is the mandatory method to be used by training providers and Local Boards for transmitting this data to the state. For a full list of CaIJOBS Activity Codes used to track a participant's training activities, please see CaIJOBS Activity Codes (WSD19-06). WSD21-03 Page 21 of 21 ETPL POLICY AND PROCEDURES ATTACHMENT 2 ETPL DEFINITIONS Apprenticeship Program —All apprenticeship programs that are registered with the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL), Office of Apprenticeship, or approved by California (CA) Department of Industrial Relations (DIR) Division of Apprenticeship Standards (DAS), are automatically eligible to be included on the CA Eligible Training Provider List (ETPL). Apprenticeship programs are a written plan designed to move an apprentice from a low or no skill entry-level position to full occupational proficiency. The apprenticeship program is sponsored by an employer, and upon completing the training program, an apprentice earns a "Completion of Registered Apprenticeship" certificate, which is an industry -issued, nationally - recognized credential. Customized Training —Training that meets the following criteria: 1. Designed to meet the specific requirements of an employer (including a group of employers). 2. Conducted with a commitment by the employer to employ an individual upon successful completion of the training. 3. The employer pays a significant portion of the cost of training, as determined by the Local Workforce Development Board (Local Board) involved, taking Into account the size of the employer and such other factors as the Local Board determines to be appropriate, which may include the number of employees participating in training, wage and benefit levels of those employees at present and anticipated upon completion of the training), relation of the training to the competitiveness of a participant, and other employer -provided training and advancement opportunities. Distance Education — Education that uses only one or more of the technologies listed below to deliver instruction to students who are separated from the instructor, and to support regular and substantive interaction between the students and the instructor, whether offered concurrently or not. The technologies include the following: 1. The internet. 2. One-way and two-way transmissions through open broadcast, closed circuit, cable, microwave, broadband lines, fiber optics, satellite, or wireless communications devices. 3. Audio conferencing. Eligible Training Provider (ETP) — In order for a training provider to list a program on the ETPL, the training provider must do the following: 1. Receive funding for training services. 2. Meet the standards and requirements to be a training provider on the ETPL. 3. Provide a program of training services. 4. Be one of the following types of entities: Institution of Higher Education that leads to a recognized post -secondary credential. WSD21-03 Page 1 of 5 ETPL POLICY AND PROCEDURES ATTACHMENT 2 b.

Nonprofit Community Based Organization under Section 501(c)(3) of the Federal Internal Revenue Code. ii. Joint labor-management organizations. iii. Eligible training providers of Adult education and literacy activities under Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) Title II. ETPL Training Program Types — In order for a training provider to receive WIOA funds through an Individual Training Account (ITA), its training program(s) must be listed on the ETPL. These programs must provide training services, including, but not limited to the following (unless otherwise noted): 1. Occupational skills training, including training for non-traditional employment. 2. Programs that combine workplace training with related instruction, which may include cooperative education programs. 3. Training programs operated by the private sector. 4. Skill upgrading and retraining. 5. Entrepreneurial training. 6. Adult Education or Literacy Activities in combination with training services listed above. 7. Apprenticeship and Pre -apprenticeship Skills Training (20 CFR 680.330). In -demand Industry Sector or occupation — The determination of whether an industry sector or occupation is in -demand shall be made by the California Workforce Develnnment Board (CWDB) or Local Board, as appropriate, using state and regional business and labor market projections. An industry sector is considered in demand if it has a substantial current, or potential impact (including through jobs that lead to economic self-sufficiency and opportunities for advancement) on the state, regional, or local economy, and that contributes to the growth or stability of other supporting businesses, or the growth of other industry sectors. An occupation that currently has, or is projected to have, a number of positions in an industry sector so as to have a significant impact on the state, regional, or local economy, as appropriate. Occupational Skills Training —An organized program of study that provides specific vocational skills that lead to proficiency in performing actual tasks and technical functions required by certain occupational fields at entry, intermediate, or advanced levels. Postsecondary Credential —An industry -recognized certificate or certification, a certificate of completion of an apprenticeship, a license recognized by the state or federal government, or an Associate or Bachelor's degree. A recognized postsecondary credential is based on the attainment of measurable technical or industry/occupational skills necessary to obtain employment or advance within an industry/occupation. These technical or industry/occupational skills are generally based on standards developed or endorsed by WSD21-03 Page 2 of 5 ETPL POLICY AND PROCEDURES ATTACHMENT 2 employers or industry associations. The following are types of recognized postsecondary credentials: • Associate degree. • Bachelor's degree. • Occupational licensure (e.g. Certified Nursing Assistant license). • Occupational certificate, including Registered Apprenticeship and Career and Technical Education educational certificates. • Occupational certification (e.g. Automotive Service Excellence certification). • Other recognized certificates of industry/occupational skills completion sufficient to qualify for entry-level or advancement in employment. Certificates awarded by Local Boards and work readiness certificates are not considered postsecondary credentials because neither type of certificate is recognized industry -wide, nor documents the measurable technical or industry/occupational skills necessary to gain employment or advancement within an occupation. Certificates/credentials that provide general skills, even if such general skills are broadly required to qualify for entry-level employment or advancement in employment, are not considered postsecondary certificates/credentials. The following are examples of credentials/certificates that are not recognized postsecondary credentials: • Occupational Safety and Health Administration 10-hour course on job -related common safety and health hazards (OSHA 10). • National Career Readiness Certification. • National Retail Federation Credentials. • ServSafe Food Handler's Certification. • Cardio Pulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) Certification. • Certificates for General Computer Skills (Microsoft Word, Excel, Outlook, etc.). For an additional resource, the DOL designed an interactive Postsecondary Credential Attainment Decision Tree to assist in making a determination about whether a credential is considered an industry -recognized credential. This tool is best used in conjunction with the information outlined in this directive. Pre -apprenticeship Program —A program designed to prepare individuals to enter and succeed in an apprenticeship program, and includes the following elements: 1. Training and curriculum that aligns with the skill needs of employers in the economy of the state or region involved. 2. Access to educational and career counseling and other supportive services, directly or indirectly. WSD21-03 Page 3 of 5 ETPL POLICY AND PROCEDURES ATTACHMENT 2 3. Hands-on, meaningful learning activities that are connected to education and training activities, such as exploring career options, and understanding how the skills acquired through coursework can be applied toward a future career. 4. A partnership with one or more apprenticeship programs that assists in placing individuals who complete the pre -apprenticeship program in an apprenticeship program. 5. Opportunities to attain at least one industry -recognized credential through an apprenticeship program. Secondary School Diploma or Recognized Equivalent— CA -recognized diplomas issued by a CA public school, as well as by private schools accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC) or equivalent regional accreditation body. The requirements of a secondary school diploma are outlined by the California Department of Education (CDE) and listed on CDE's High School Graduation Requirements webpage. A secondary school equivalency certification indicates that a student has completed the requirements for a high school education. CA has approved the use of three high school equivalency tests (HSET): GED®, HiSET", and TASCTM. These tests are for students 18 years old and older, and 17 years old (in some instances). Those who pass the CA High School Proficiency Examination are awarded a Certificate of Proficiency by the CA State Board of Education. While some HSET preparation programs may issue "diplomas or certificates" of completion these documents are not genuine high school equivalency credentials. There are various free HSET preparation programs available for free through the CA Adult Education Provider Directory. Third -Party Subcontracting — a program where course instruction and curriculum is not developed by the provider, and instead is created and delivered by a third party. Per Attachment 1 of the directive, the provider accepting tuition and related instruction fees (e.g. ITA) must be the provider listed on the ETPL. Third -party subcontractors cannot accept WIOA funding without meeting ETPL eligibility requirements, and being placed on the ETPL. Per the California Education Code Section 94886, private postsecondary institutions that receive "institutional charges" such as tuition are required to be approved or deemed exempt by the BPPE.1 1 EDC 94886 - Except as exempted in Article 4 (commencing with Section 94874) or in compliance with the transition provisions in Article 2 (commencing with Section 94802), a person shall not open, conduct, or do business as a private postsecondary educational institution in this state without obtaining an approval to operate under this chapter. EDC 94858 - "Private postsecondary educational institution" means a private entity with a physical presence in this state that offers postsecondary education to the public for an institutional charge. WSD21-03 Page 4 of 5 ETPL POLICY AND PROCEDURES ATTACHMENT 2 Training Program —A program of training services is one or more courses or classes, or a structured regimen that provides the WIOA training services, and leads to any of the following: 1. An industry -recognized certificate or certification, a certificate of completion of a registered apprenticeship, a license recognized by the State or the Federal government, an associate or baccalaureate degree. 2. A secondary school diploma or its equivalent. 3. Employment (see definition for Training Program that leads to Employment). 4. Measurable skill gains. Due the federal reporting requirements of the ETP Report, if a program is offered with more than one mode of delivery (e.g. online and in -person), more than one program length (e.g. contact hours and/or weeks), and/or more than one curriculum, the program needs to be entered once for each different variation. For example, if program A is offered online, and in - person, the program needs to be entered twice: (1) for the online program, and (2) for the in - person program. Training Program that leads to Employment —An eligible ETPL program must prepare graduates for a specific occupation related to the training that was provided. This means that programs must award measurable technical skills, rather than general skills that are broadly required for employment. These measurable technical or industry/occupational skills generally are based on standards developed or endorsed by employers or industry associations. The training program must be valuable to employers, as evidenced by partnerships with business within priority industry sectors as identified in the State or Local Plan. Support of the training program from at least three separate employers are required to be eligible, and documentation of this support should be uploaded into the provider profile. In addition, graduates of the program must be employed in an occupation related to the training program. Training -related employment can be recorded for WIOA graduates in the follow-up ribbon of the WIOA application. Unsubsidized Employment— Employment in the private or public sector where the employer does not receive a subsidy from public funds to offset all or part of the wages and costs of employing the individual.

Resolution — Accreditation can be verified by visiting the Western Association of Schools and Colleges, Senior College and University Commission (WSCUC) or WASC Accrediting Commission for Community and Junior Colleges (WASC ACCJC) website and searching for the provider in the directory of institutions. Direct links are provided in the policy. Comment #2 — Do private postsecondary schools need to be Bureau of Private Postsecondary Education (BPPE) approved and accredited by WASC? Resolution — No, private providers must be either accredited by WASC, have BPPE Approval to Operate, or meet the exemption criteria identified in California Education Code (CEC) Section 94874. See Attachment 1 under 3. Private Postsecondary Institutions for more information. Comment #3 — Why is the accreditation only limited to Accrediting Commission for Schools (ACS), WASC, the WSCUC? Why is accreditation limited to regional and not inclusive of any Department of Education (DOE) accrediting agency in lieu of BPPE? There are specific examples listed in bold italics that do include these exceptions, what's the difference? Resolution — The BPPE oversees private postsecondary institutions operating in California with the exception of those outlined in CEC Section 94874. Per CEC 94874(i) institutions accredited by the ACS WASC, or WSCUC are exempt from the BPPE. Additional language expanding acceptable accrediting agencies for Distance Education providers has been added on page 9 of this directive. Adult Education Comment #4— Regarding defining providers of adult education as only those who provide training under Title II of Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) (English as a Second Language [ESL] and citizenship classes). This could exclude Regional Occupational Programs (ROPs), community based schools, and any district that contract these services out to local Community Based Organizations (CBOs). Resolution —Training Employment and Guidance Letter (TEGL) 8-19, attachment 1, page 3 includes "Eligible providers of adult education and literacy activities under WIOA Title II if such activities are provided in combination with training services described in 20 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) § 680.350" as an eligible training provider. Appeals Comment #5 — Does the appeals process still work in the context of Local Workforce Development Boards (Local Boards) "nominating" providers for the ETPL instead of placing them on directly? Where should the appeals process start? Resolution —The appeals process starts with the Local Board that issued the denial. If a provider is denied inclusion on the ETPL, and wishes to appeal, the provider must submit its appeal to the Local Board. Page 2 of 25 Comment #6 — Who would be the party responsible for (1) suspending the provider that is under federal, state, or local investigation; (2) notifying the provider of the suspension? If the provider protests, stating they were not afforded due process conduct, who will be responsible for handling any possible legal process as a result of this suspension. Resolution — Removing the provider would be the responsibility of both the Local Board and the state. If either found that a training provider is currently under investigation, then the provider would be immediately suspended by either the state or the Local Board, and the Local Board would inform the provider of the suspension. The provider would then undergo the appeals process if it so chooses, starting with the Local Board. Comment #7 —What if the training provider disagrees with the Local Board's initial eligibility assessment? Resolution —The Local Board must provide the training provider with information regarding the appeals process. Comment #8—Are initial/informal meetings required as part of the appeals process if both parties waive it based on written confirmation? Resolution —All Local Boards must include an option for an informal meeting in their appeals policy. However, both parties can agree to waive this requirement, and documentation should be uploaded into the Provider Profile. This also needs to be included in the local policy. Comment #9—Are formal hearings required if both parties waive it? Can impartial hearing officers be employed at the Local Board or does it need to be from an outside agency? Can the hearing officer be a compliance analyst not working directly with ETPL? Resolution — Local Boards must include the option of a formal hearing in their appeals policy. However, both parties can agree to waive this requirement, and documentation should be uploaded into the Provider Profile. Guidance on the appeals process, including impartial hearing officers, needs to be included in the local policy. Comment #10 — Can a Local Board rule to approve a provider on appeal, if the EDD originally rejected it? Resolution —Yes, but the provider/program has to go through final EDD approval before being reinstated to the ETPL. Apprenticeships Comment #11— It appears that a number of requirements are inapplicable to apprenticeship programs, including the WIOA Section 188 requirement. Is this correct? Resolution — Both Department of Labor (DOL) and Department of Industrial Relations (DIR), Division of Apprenticeship Standards (DAS) ensure that apprenticeships meet Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) standards per 29 CFR 30.3, therefore the Local Board cannot impose additional EEO requirements onto the apprenticeship program. Page 3 of 25 Comment #12 — Please provide further guidance on including all California (CA) apprenticeships on the local Eligible Training Provider List (ETPL). There are some apprenticeship programs that are not available locally (example: apprenticeship programs in Imperial County do not have a presence in Southern California), and does not seem to make sense to list locally as we are unable to provide the Individual Training Account (ITA) for training due to the distance restrictions. Resolution — Per TEGL 13-16, Change 1, "All Registered Apprenticeship Program (RAPS) on a statewide ETP list must also be located on all local ETP lists in the state." In addition, TEGL 8-19 states that "Local Boards may add additional requirements for providers, except for RAPs, which result in providers that are on the state ETP list that may not be eligible for inclusion on the local ETP list." Comment #13 — Can Local Boards require local program requirements to apprenticeship programs related to payments (W-9s, Invoice Agreements) and other WIOA assurances (WIOA section 188), list of employers partners, or is that assumed by the state? Resolution — Apprenticeship programs cannot have additional eligibility requirements added to them, per TEGL 8-19. If an apprenticeship program is approved by DOL or DIR DAS and want to be added to the ETPL, they must be added to the state and local ETPL. They cannot be removed from the ETPL until they request to be removed or they lose apprenticeship approval/designation from DOL or DIR DAS. Comment #14 —Are registered apprenticeship programs required to provide a paid employment component and if they are not providing employment, how is that monitored? If they do not provide employment, isn't that just a regular training program? Resolution —Yes, per the Factsheet located on the DOL Apprenticeship website, apprenticeships are required to provide a paid employment component. The approval of apprenticeship programs is managed by the DOL and/or DIR DAS. Comment #15 —Are we allowed to require apprenticeship to meet our contracting/insurance requirements to be on the local list? Resolution — No. PerTEGL 8-19, no additional eligibility requirements can be added to apprenticeship programs. Comment #16 —There are approved apprenticeship programs in occupations that are not in our local priority sector or in -demand occupations. Our local policy is to not put such programs on our local ETPL. It would be inconsistent to allow such a program to be listed as an apprenticeship when we do not list it as a private postsecondary training program. Resolution — Per TEGL 13-16, Change 1, "Given that RAPS are a link to demonstrated hiring needs and WIOA provides automatic training provider eligibility to RAPS, ETA has determined that RAPS qualify as occupations in -demand in the local labor market." In addition, TEGL 8-19, Attachment 1, page 3 states: "RAPS are automatically eligible to be included on the ETP list and are exempt from state and local ETP eligibility requirements." Page 4 of 25 Comment #17 — If WIOA funds cannot be used for building construction, doesn't that restrict Local Boards from funding apprenticeship/pre-apprenticeship programs? Resolution — DOL Final Rules 683.235 clarifies that WIOA funds can't be used for construction, etc. for the purposes of administering WIOA without prior approval from the Secretary of State. However, in the context of apprenticeships and pre -apprenticeships, WIOA funds can be used to pay for participants to be enrolled in construction programs. Consumer Choice Comment #18— Does this mean the Local Board must refer the client for training and an ITA regardless of the appropriateness of the training? Can an individual demand enrollment and training services while demonstrating poor fitness by missing appointments, failing to meet their obligations in the Individual Employment Plan (IEP), and participate in training that does not necessarily fit their employment goals as long as they possess the minimum age, basic skills, and/or prerequisites to do so? If so, we do not believe this is required by WIOA or beneficial to the participant or the system. Resolution —The America's Job Center of CaliforniasM staff must determine training services are appropriate for an individual after conducting an interview, an evaluation or assessment, and career planning. If training is determined to be appropriate after meeting with a career planner, the Local Board must send that participant to the training they select as long as training funds have not been exhausted. Individuals maintain the right to enroll in whatever program they choose, however it is the Local Board's responsibility to help individuals with choosing the best program that fits their needs based on the IEP. Please see the definition of Training Services In WSD19-06 for further guidance on how an individual qualifies for training services. Comment #19 —The CA ETPL does not permit the Local Board to approve a training program that is eligible to be paid with WIOA funding, even though the Local Board is the subject matter expert on what will lead to a self -sustainable career in the local/regional economy. The CA ETPL limits the choice of consumer and the Local Board to use Labor Market Information to determine which courses should be deemed eligible. Resolution — Local Board staff are still able to select providers to nominate that reflect the needs of their Local Workforc a Development Area (Local Area). Attachment 1, page 6 states "Once all necessary information is entered, the Local ETPL Coordinator must review and nominate the training provider and/or program for inclusion on the CA ETPL." Delegation Comment #20 — Does each Local Board need to screen all ETPL schools in the Regional Planning Unit (RPU) for inclusion on its local ETPL? Currently we only go through the local process if a customer requests the school. Resolution —Yes, as well as all CA ETPL approved distance education providers and registered apprenticeships. Page 5 of 25 Comment #21— How does a Local ETPL Coordinator get notified that a distance education program or a program in the RPU has been approved? Resolution — ETPL Coordinators receive notifications via the CaIJOBSsM Message Center for their ETPL Coordinator account alerting them to newly added and approved programs. Comment #22 — Please explain how this will be handled for the providers and programs that are already listed. Currently, the ETPL Coordinator in which the main campus is located must manage all of the sites, even those out of their area. Resolution — Local Board initial and continued eligibility procedures will need to be adjusted. For Continued Eligibility, the provider profile will be reviewed by the EDD. The programs will continue to be reviewed by the Local Boards where the programs are located. Comment #23 — Local Boards with the main office or main campus located in their region, should not be responsible for listing other affiliated programs located outside their region. Each region needs to have the option to list linked campuses/schools separately in each region. With EEO monitoring requirements and no designated funding provided to hire ETPL Coordinators, being responsible for multiple campuses throughout the State, is an unrealistic expectation, especially for smaller Local Boards with limited resources. Resolution — For Initial Eligibility, the provider profile is nominated by the Local Board where the provider is headquartered. Programs will be nominated by the Local Board where the program is located, For Continued Eligibility, the provider profile will be reviewed by the EDD. The programs will continue to be reviewed by the Local Boards where the programs are located. Comment #24 — Once programs are listed on the CA ETPL, can this be clarified why training providers need to contact Local Boards? If the provider is not currently on the CA ETPL, shouldn't the Local Board where the provider (not the program) is located be responsible for nominating the provider? Resolution — Providers can reach out to the Local ETPL Coordinator for technical assistance with entering information in CaIJOBS. The provider is norninated by the Local Board where the provider is headquartered. Programs will be nominated by the Local Board where the prograrr is located. Comment #25 — If there are no changes to the ETPL Local Board Delegation and Cancellation Form (Attachment 3) and the Local ETPL Coordinator Contact Form (Attachment 7) that are already on file, do we need to resubmit them under this new Draft Directive? Resolution — Local Boards will need to submit the ETPL Local Board Delegation and Cancellation Form (Attachment 3) annually in July. The Local ETPL Coordinator Contact Form (Attachment 7) only needs to be resubmitted when there are updates. Comment #26 — Is it possible to not only delegate ETPL duties to another Local Board, but instead to delegate individual providers to another Local Board? Page 6 of 25 Resolution —The delegation form is used to delegate ETPL responsibilities (including providers/programs) to another Local Board. Individual providers cannot be delegated to another Local Board. If a provider moves its headquarters from one Local Area to another, the responsibility for that provider changes, and both Local Board ETPL Coordinators should be made aware of the change. Eligibility General Eligibility Comment #27— Can Local Boards place the burden of proof on providers to prove that their programs meet the requirements for eligibility? Resolution — Local Board staff are required to review programs to ensure they meet eligibility requirements, including credentials. Once all necessary information is entered, the Local ETPL Coordinator must review and nominate the training provider and/or program for Inclusion on the CA ETPL ensuring all information provided is complete, accurate, and current, and is in alignment with this Directive. Comment #28— What documentation is required to demonstrate a provider's partnership with local businesses? Resolution —This will vary depending on the Local Board and their local policy. The state will allow Local Boards to decide what is considered "in partnership with business. Comment #29— Will the negotiated goals be the same as WIOA title I programs or will there be different ones for training provider programs? Resolution — Programs must meet the performance requirements described in the continued eligibility section of the Directive, as well as the state -level Title I Adult performance goal. Comment #30— Why are training providers that do not award degrees and solely provide educational programs for total charges of $2,500 not allowed? If a provider has a BPPE exemption, it is unclear if a WIOA-funded ITA is considered Federal student financial aid and therefore ineligible. Resolution —This exemption prohibits any federal funding be used to pay for this program, thus excluding WIOA funding from being used. Section 74110 of the CEC defines public funding as "any financial aid paid on behalf of students or directly to an institution from any public source," which includes WIOA. Initial Eligibility Comment #31— Performance requirements for initial eligibility limit customer choice and local autonomy by removing the ability for new training providers to be added to the ETPL without performance data. The Draft Directive does not specify the source of the performance metrics. If in the past, it will come from a provider's BPPE Annual Report, this will further inhibit a Local Board's autonomy as BPPE is currently two years behind in publishing performance data and, in fact, does not even allow a provider to upload data until September for publication in Page 7 of 25 December. This would effectively mean new providers would be required to have two years of performance metrics. Resolution —TEGL 8-19, Attachment 1 indicates that, "The performance of ETPs is a factor that states must use in determining both initial and continued eligibility of a provider to be included on the state's ETP list." The state requires placement data for initial eligibility for two main reasons: 1) it ensures that providers on the ETPL are of a certain quality in keeping with state and federal laws and regulations, and 2) participants are more likely to be successful in WIOA (i.e. employment) if the ETPL program meets the initial eligibility placement requirement. This benefits Local Board performance numbers. Performance data is entered directly into CaIJOBS, and is no longer verified using the BPPE Annual Report. Comment #32 — Given the time it takes for a provider to create and complete an ETPL application, what is the exact timeframe for Local Boards to complete their review process? Resolution — Local Boards should complete their review process of a provider within 30 calendar days of the complete provider and/or program data being submitted into CaIJOBS. The state considers the date of a program being submitted as the application date, and the Local Board has 30 days from that date to nominate the program for review to the state. Comment #33 — Is it required that all initial and continued eligibility reviews be reviewed by the state prior to a Local Board approving? If so, what is the process for this? Resolution — Local Boards will submit providers and their programs to the state for review. This is called "nominating," and the process will be very similar to the current one for adding programs to the ETPL. Within 30 days of receiving the nomination, the state will review the data in CaIJOBS and either approve or deny the provider and/or program, and inform the Local Board. Comment #34 — In the past, performance was collected during the subsequent eligibility period. Are we now, gathering information on performance prior to listing a program on the ETPL? Is there an exception for performance if the provider or program is new? Resolution —Yes, performance information must be provided as part of the initial eligibility review process. The use of performance data during initial eligibility review is required by the DOL, and cannot be waived. Continued Eligibility Comment #35 — Removing programs and then requiring a program meet continued eligibility requirements limits consumer choice and would slow the ETPL's ability to foster demand - driven skills attainment. Resolution —The state has implemented this policy to limit the number of providers that are only on the ETPL for other funding sources (e.g. Workers' Compensation Vouchers) and should help limit the burden of the Local Board ETPL Coordinators in reviewing these providers if they are not helping participants in the workforce system. Comment #36— Previously, it was up to the Local Board to determine if a provider or program can stay on the ETPL. Is it required that we remove the provider if no enrollments have Page 8 of 25 occurred in 2 years? If so, what is the process for the provider to get back on the ETPL? Can a customer request the provider? Resolution — Yes, per the Directive providers must be removed from the ETPL if they do not have at least one enrollment in the previous two program years (PYs). If they would like to get back on the ETPL, they must wait 6 months before reapplying to the ETPL and meet the continued eligibility requirements in the Directive. Comment #37 — What is the process for schools that are already listed on the ETPL? Do we review all new requirements at their annual mark or do they need to be reviewed at the effective date of this Directive? Resolution — Per the ETPL Directive, continued eligibility applies to all training providers listed on the CA ETPL at any time under the WIOA or Workforce Investment Act (WIA), and whose initial eligibility has expired. A training provider's initial and continued eligibility is valid for 365 days after the provider is approved for the ETPL. Providers and programs already on the list can be reviewed using the policies outlined in this directive the next time they are reviewed for continued eligibility. Comment #38— Providers on the ETPL for two full complete PYs (July 1—June 30) must have at least one Title I, subtitle B enrollment during the previous two PYs. Does this refer to one enrollment in the entire provider or one enrollment in the individual program? Resolution — One enrollment for the entire provider. This requirement is not applied to the program. Comment #39 — What is the reapplication process for programs trying to remain on the ETPL? Resolution — Please see the ETPL Guide Card (Attachment 5) for steps on how programs are submitted for continued eligibility review. Comment #40—Since continued eligibility can be reviewed at any time during the year (calendar or fiscal), which timeframe is used to measure performance? Resolution —The performance timeframe is for the previous complete PY, July 15C to June 301h. Comment #41— Will Local Boards have the discretion when they conduct continued eligibility? Resolution — After the program becomes initially eligible, they must be reviewed again before the end of the first year (i.e. a program is added to the ETPL on 10/22/2020, the Local Board must review the program again prior to 10/22/2021). Continued eligibility for providers and programs on the CA ETPL must be reviewed every year. For the local ETPL, Local Boards can do continued eligibility every two years. Local Boards can determine the time frame in which they review and complete continued eligibility as long as it is done within the required timeframes. Comment #42— For programs that run over the one-year period, how should the Local Board conduct continued eligibility? Page 9 of 25 Resolution — Programs that are longer than one year should use whatever cohort is graduating in the year to determine if they meet continued eligibility. Comment #43 — How do Local Boards determine which programs are up for continued eligibility? Resolution — ETPL programs in CaIJOBS have a Subsequent Review Due Date (SRDD), which is the date that Local Boards must review a program by. If a program is not reviewed by the SRDD, the program will automatically be removed from the ETPL. Programs that are 60 days from their SRDD will have a REAPP icon, indicating they are in need of review. The Detailed Report> Provider> by Program Reapplication allows Local Board to see which programs on the ETPL are due for review. Comment #44 — How do Local Boards keep track of programs during continued eligibility, aside from reports? What if there are issues with how the reports function? Resolution — ETPL staff accounts allow for notifications to be sent to staffs email regarding new programs, changes to existing programs, and other changes in the ETPL module. If there are any issues regarding notifications, please reach out to the CaIJOBS Operations Unit at caljobsadmin@edd.ca.gov. The state is also working to revise provider reports to be more useful to ETPL staff. If ETPL staff would like to request updates to reports (new filters, new columns, etc.), they can email the ETPL box at wsbetpl@edd.ca.gov. Comment #45 — Will we be using the most recent data available in ETP Report for our continued eligibility or waiting until a new year is submitted? Resolution —You would use the most recently available performance data to determine if a provider is eligible. Comment #46 — Reviewing year-round instead of at one specific time may seem like a more efficient method, but in reality, it puts an onerous burden on ETPL coordinators. Couldn't it be possible to make the review at a set time during the year? Or Local Boards should have the option to review at a minimum, once per year, or every 2 years if programs are longer than a year? Resolution —After the program becomes initially eligible and is added to the CA ETPL, they must be reviewed annually for continued eligibility (i.e. a program is added to the ETPL on 10/22/2020, the Local Board ETPL Coordinator must review the program again prior to 10/22/2021). For the local ETPL, Local Boards can do continued eligibility every two years. Local Boards can determine the time frame in which they review and complete continued eligibility as long as it is done within the required timeframes. Cost Information Comment #47 - What should the cost information for an ETPL program be matched to? Resolution —The cost in the Cost Details tab of the program wizard should match the cost a Page 10 of 25 member of the general public would pay when enrolling in the program without assistance from WIOA. This information should be available in the provider's brochure or website. Credentials Comment #48 —This DOL Credential Tool does not include a category for private postsecondary providers. Resolution —Those providers would fit under the "Institutions for Higher Education" category. Comment #49 —The DOL Credential Tool does not explain the skills that either meet/do not meet the definition of a credential. It also does not explain what "in -demand" means. Resolution —The DOL Credential Tool is meant to accompany federal ETPL guidance and illustrate how the requirements are met, rather than explain what those requirements are. Comment #50 — If a Local Board, as part of the local initial eligibility requirements, completes an onsite visit with an industry expert who verifies the program meets industry standards, evidenced by the review of the curriculum, equipment, testing, etc., would this be considered as meeting the industry credentials? Resolution —These requirements are in addition to the credential/employment for a specific occupation requirement, not specific criteria for the requirements. Credentials that are "industry -recognized" must meet the definition as described in WSD19-03. Comment #51—There are many programs that do not meet the narrow definition of Post - Secondary Credential outlined in the Definitions attachment that provide valuable and demonstrated effectiveness to individuals with barriers to employment (such as programs for Microsoft Office applications and other office and administrative oriented programs). We also believe these should meet the definition of training under Skills Upgrade and Retraining. Resolution — Per Training and Employment Notice (TEN) 25-19, the programs described here do not meet the definition of a post -secondary credential, since the skills that are attained fall into the general skills/work readiness category. W IOA funds can be used to provide training to general skills such as work readiness, hygiene or safety, but credentials can only be counted toward recognized postsecondary credential attainment if they prepare a person with the competencies required to perform a specific occupation. Local Boards can still send participants to Microsoft courses; however, it is considered a Short-term Prevocational Service and CaIJOBS activity code 215 should be used. Comment #52 —Several comments were received regarding the desire to exclude Skills Upgrading and Retraining, Entrepreneurial Training, and Adult Education and Literacy Activities from the list of services required to be on the ETPL. Resolution — Per TEGL 8-19, Attachment 1, these training services are required to be on the ETPL if using an ITA. Page 11 of 25 Comment #53 — Would the fact that there is a partnership be the only evidence needed to prove that the provider's credential and/or certificate is acceptable as an industry -recognized credential? What extent or depth of partnership is required to meet this bar- and what criteria should the ETPL coordinator use to determine what the extent or depth of the partnership is? Should there be written documentation? Resolution — No, credentials that are "industry -recognized" must meet the definition as described in WSD19-03. The extent or depth of partnership will be determined by each Local Board. Comment #54—The second to last bullet (page 4) only mentions credentials and or certificates, but does it also include degrees or licenses? Resolution — Yes. Attachment 2 provides a full list of the types of recognized postsecondary credentials. Comment #55— If the program does not issue the credential, what is the distinction that the program meets a requirement to lead to a license? Would it be "if a separate/third party exam is required to obtain the license," otherwise it would need to be issued by the training provider? Resolution —The training program does not have to issue the credential, but the training program should prepare the individual to obtain the credential. For example, a Class A Truck Driving program does not issue the Class A driver's license, but it should prepare the individual to pass the state issued exam to obtain the license. Comment #56 — The DOL Credential Tool indicates that a secondary school diploma or equivalent meets the requirements of a credential when attesting to Industry -wide Technical or Industry/Occupation Skills. We believe programs to attain secondary school diplomas or the equivalent meet the definition of training and credential. Resolution — Credentials that are "industry -recognized" must meet the definition as described in WSD19-03. A secondary school diploma or equivalent is a credential, but the Adult Education program can only be on the ETPL when earned in conjunction with Occupational Skills Training. Distance Education Comment #57 — Emergent needs from COVID (online versions, remote training, etc.) is not represented at this time on ETPL. There is urgent need for access to quick training options in addition to training designed to assist in short-term skill building in order to access surge recruitment and lifeboat jobs. How will we handle this need? Resolution — Online learning and/or remote training (distance education) is eligible to be on the ETPL. These providers are reviewed for initial and continued eligibility by the State ETPL Coordinator. Under the new Directive, the responsibility for providers that only function in a distance education capacity shifts to the state for initial and subsequent eligibility review. Page 12 of 25 Comment #58 — With the change in instruction delivery due to COVID, will training providers already listed on ETPL have to create new listings for on-line programs? Resolution —Yes. Per Attachment 1, "If the program is offered with multiple modes of delivery, curriculum, or course lengths, the program must be entered separately for each variation." Please reference the definition of a Training Program in Attachment 2. Comment #59 —Online training is really limited, particularly by providers outside of California. There are many quality training programs that initiate and have headquarters outside of California. The ETPL makes it difficult to find and access these providers. Additionally, online courses (without physical operations) are not easily added which is a disincentive. Resolution — Distance Education providers can be headquartered outside of CA, but they must only offer distance education courses. If they only have physical training locations outside of CA, then they are considered an out-of-state provider and cannot be on the CA ETPL; however, an approved reciprocal agreement may be used. If they have physical locations in CA, but are headquartered outside CA, they are still considered an in -state provider and can be on the ETPL if they meet eligibility requirements. Per the Education Code Section 94801.5, Distance Education private postsecondary education institutions must register with BPPE, unless they provide undergraduate or graduate degrees. Comment #60 — What about providers that provide both distance and in -person programs? Or programs that are hybrid partially distance and partially in -person? Resolution — If the provider offers alternative or "hybrid" in -person and online programs, and have a physical location in California, they are an in -state provider. If the program is offered with multiple modes of delivery, different curriculum, and/or different course lengths, the program must be entered separately for each variation. Please reference the definition of a Training Program in Attachment 2. Comment #61— CaIJOBS offers a screen for choosing "Duration" with options of more than one intensity, duration and schedule. CaIJOBS also offers a "Scheduling" screen that could be updated by GSI to allow a selection for in -person and/or distance learning if you want to track it. Could these be used instead of creating separate program entries In CaIJOBS for a single program that only has one listing with the accrediting agency, one curriculum, one cost and one set of performance? Shouldn't CaIJOBS listings match the exact titles and programs approved by the accrediting agency? Resolution — Programs with multiple modes of delivery, different lengths of instruction, and/or different curriculum must be listed separately to comply with ETP Report requirements. Program details should match the brochures available on the provider's website. Comment #62 — Who is responsible for initial and continued eligibility for Distance Education providers? Resolution —The State ETPL Coordinator is responsible for the initial and continued eligibility of Distance Education providers. EEO Page 13 of 25 Comment #63 — Where do Local Boards find the EEO monitoring tools? Resolution — Please refer to your Local Board's EEO Officer, as defined in WSD17-01. Comment #64 — How do Local Boards conduct EEO monitoring for providers with multiple locations? Resolution — It is recommended that Local Boards provide the provider one of the EEO monitoring tools (depending on size of provider), and have them complete it and add it to their CaIJOBS Provider Profile. For additional assistance, please refer to your Local Board's EEO Officer and reference WSD17-01. Comment #65 —Are on -site visits (which would be needed to determine that EEO and other items are posted) required before nominating a training vendor for inclusion on the CA ETPL? Resolution — No, it is recommended that Local Boards provide one of the EEO monitoring tools (depending on size of provider), and have them complete it and add it to their CaIJOBS Provider Profile. For additional assistance, please refer to your Local Board's EEO Officer and reference WSD17-01. Comment #66 — Do the EEO requirements in the Draft Directive apply to all providers? Resolution —This applies to all training providers, except apprenticeship programs. ETP Report Comment #67 — What if BPPE performance data is not collected for providers who serve rural areas? Won't this negatively affect their placement rate? Resolution — Performance requirements for providers under the new ETPL Directive do not require BPPE placement data. Placement data is directly entered into CaIJOBS. Comment #68 — Public education either does not collect and track students past graduation or claim they aren't allowed to release that information due to confidentiality requirements. If a public postsecondary CC, CSU or UC does not provide % who successfully completed a program, nor %who are employed within 6 months for initial eligibility, their program must still be listed on the CA ETPL because they are not required to meet a specific performance threshold, correct? Resolution — For Initial Eligibility, public postsecondary providers are still required to submit performance data. They are not required to meet a threshold. Comment #69 — Would a waiver be available if the individual was sick or had a valid reason not to take the first test? Some state tests have very long periods between test dates. Resolution — No, a waiver is not available for a missed test. Comment #70 — How is the provider supposed to know when one of their students has exited from WIOA? Or does this mean the student exited from the program, either by successfully completing or dropping out? Resolution — Exiting the program refers to the training program rather than WIOA. Page 14 of 25 Comment #71—is the placement requirement based on WIOA enrollments only or includes general public as well? Resolution —The placement requirement for initial eligibility includes all students. For continued eligibility, the completion measures includes all students, whereas the other measures include WIOA participants only. Comment #72 — In regards to performance for public postsecondary, is there a form for the providers to fill out with the performance information? Resolution —All providers are required to report their performance data directly into CalJOBS. Comment #73 — Local Boards are responsible for meeting WIOA performance outcomes for WIOA participants. Are training providers held to the outcomes that are the responsibility of the Local Boards or do they hold shared responsibility? If the performance metrics inclusive of both WIOA and non-WIOA participants, is it common for providers to track employment outcomes or is this specific to ETPL? Resolution — Providers are held to the performance requirements outlined in the ETPL Directive, as described in the Initial and Continued Eligibility sections. If providers and/or programs are successful with WIOA participants, the Local Board will see this success in meeting their negotiated goals. The responsibility of outcomes is shared. Comment #74 — Program data being entered into CaIJOBS represents duplication of work for those who do collect such information and is not verifiable. Minimally, we believe the state should work with the CalJOBS vendor to provide a more streamlined process. Resolution —As described in TELL 3-18, all providers must work with the state to submit performance data required by the ETP Report in order to be eligible and listed on the ETPL. WIOA participant data will come from case management work that is already entered into WIOA applications in CaIJOBS. Providers are required to submit aggregate data on all students in CaIJOBS. Comment #75 — Providers are required to report data on ALL students, not just WIOA, to the Local Board and the state. Does this data need to be reported by individual? If so, how do we avoid FERPA violations with individuals who have not signed consent for us to have their data? Resolution — Providers only need to submit aggregate all student data as outlined on the CA ETP Assurances Form (Attachment 4). Comment #76 —The data collection and reporting of all students that is required for the ETP Report is prohibitive. This is evidenced by many waivers that have been granted by DOL to states as well as our own state's request to waive this provision. The waiver to collect all student data should be extended. Resolution —The waiver to report all student data ended with PY 19. DOL has recently granted an extension to the waiver for PY 20; however, the DOL denied our request for a waiver Page 15 of 25 beyond PY 20, so providers will need to collect and report data on all students (WIOA and non- WIOA). For additional information on the end of this waiver, please see TEN 07-21. Comment #77 — Are Community Colleges, UCs and CSUs required to submit data on all of the data points referenced in the CA ETP Assurance Form? There should be a mechanism to obtain entered employment from students attending public schools. Resolution —Yes, per TEGL 3-18 all providers must submit data for the ETP Report. The CA ETP Assurances Form (Attachment 4) notes the data elements required for providers. Comment #78 — Will the state be working directly with providers to upload data to CaIJOBS or will the State be contacting the Local Boards to complete these tasks? Resolution — Ultimately, the Local Boards are responsible for reviewing providers and programs for initial and continued eligibility, which includes performance data. Guidance will be provided on how to upload or enter performance data into CaIJOBS. Comment #79 —The Directive references the ETP site is scheduled to launch in PY 2020; when will this be a requirement for providers to submit data to the system? What do we do in the interim? Resolution — Per TEN 7-21, the ETP All Students Waiver expired on June 30, 2021, so performance data is required to be submitted by providers beginning in PY 21. Comment #80 — ETP Reports will be published in October, what is the reporting period for that report? Are performance reports requested annually by calendar year or program year? Resolution —The ETP Report is reported by PY (July 1 to June 30). For PY 2020, the report due in October 2021 reflects data from July 1, 2020 to June 30, 2021. Comment #81— It looks like the state is aligning the provider program performance measures with WIOA indicators of performance. Does this mean the state will measure this data themselves just as they do with WIOA indicators of performance? Resolution — Providers will submit all student data to the state through the CaIJOBS system, which is then uploaded into the Eligible Training Provider Performance Report (ETP Report). The CA ETP Assurances Form (Attachment 4) details what data the providers are responsible for submitting. WIOA student data will be calculated automatically via the case management data in the CaIJOBS system. Comment #82 — Will training providers be required to enter performance data for individual participants or will it still be totals per program? Will the data be required for both WIOA and non-WIOA students? Resolution —Training providers must enter aggregate data into CaIJOBS for all students in the programs. WIOA student performance data will be calculated via the case management data entered by the case manager. Comment #83 — Will there be a CaIJOBS report for performance data? Page 16 of 25 Resolution —Yes, please use the CaIJOBS Detailed Reports > Provider > by Program Performance report. Comment #84 —What if a participant used a pseudo SSN in CaIJOBS? Resolution — If the participant has a pseudo SSN, Local Boards should capture employment and wage information in the Follow Up forms, just as they would normally for WIOA performance. WIOA participants will be included in the ETP Report automatically. Comment #85 —Are training providers expected to capture WIOA performance data that is being captured by WIOA case managers (i.e., employment data)? Resolution —Training providers are expected to capture and report aggregate data for all students (WIOA and non-WIOA). Comment #86— Will the due date for performance be issued as an Information Notice? Resolution — Beginning in PY 21, any provider undergoing initial or continued eligibility review must provide the performance data outlined in this directive. ETP Assurances Form Comment #87 — Does Page 2 have to be filled out for each student who attended during the reporting period? Resolution — No, the CA ETP Assurances Form is just the signed agreement from the provider agreeing they will provide the necessary data elements on the following page. Comment #88— Does the completed and uploaded CA ETP Assurances Form replace the Performance tab? Or does the information have to be entered in both places? Resolution —The CA ETP Assurances Form is just an agreement that providers will provide the indicated data. The form should be uploaded to the Documents section of the Provider's Profile. The performance data still needs to be submitted in the Performance tab in CaIJOBS. General ETPL Requirements Comment #89 —Due to a combination of performance reporting and the continued eligibility process, Local Boards have seen competition on the ETPL dwindle to very few. This does not promote access and equity. The challenge primarily seems to stem around the accreditation process and reporting. Resolution — It is required per WIOA law, regulations, and guidance that initial eligibility and continued eligibility of providers and programs meet certain requirements, including accreditation and meeting a factor of performance. DOL has also prescribed the requirements of the ETP Report. The state is looking into and open to suggestions on ways to make the required reporting less burdensome. We are also open to ideas and ways to assist Local Boards with advertising the ETPL to providers in their area in an effort to build the list of providers in their area. While a contract is more cumbersome than an ITA, a Local Board has the authority to contract with a provider if they determine there is a lack of providers in their area that offer a specific training program. Page 17 of 25 Comment #90 — Vetting process for adding training providers needs to be streamlined and much improved. It is currently locally driven. Can this be centralized in state this can really help achieve economies of scale? Additionally, the state has expertise in financial stability, accessibility, compliance, etc. Resolution — With the implementation of this policy, the EDD will review all Local Board nominated providers and program for initial and continued eligibility ensuring the requirements outline in this directive are applied consistently. In addition, the EDD is exploring other ways to streamline and improve the ETPL process. Comment #91—Are Adult Education and Literacy activities not allowable/fundable under WIOA unless in conjunction with an authorized training? Are such activities allowable, but not considered training? Are they simply not allowable? Resolution —To be listed on the ETPL, the provider must be an eligible provider of adult education and literacy activities under Title II of WIOA. Adult education and/or literacy activities must be offered concurrently, or in combination with, occupational skills training. Comment #92 — Public education course work should automatically be accessed and allowed on ETPL. Data collection has proven prohibitive. Should all public schools, such as Adult Ed, Community Colleges, ROP, contract education, etc., should be automatically eligible. Resolution — Not all public education programs are in -demand, so each program should be looked at individually for ETPL eligibility requirements. Per federal requirements, data collection is required of all providers (except registered apprenticeships). Comment #93 —Are all other service types on Section B, page 2 (except on the job training [OJT], Incumbent Worker Training [IWT], and customized training) required to be on ETPL? Resolution —Aside from OJT, IWT, and customized training, all services listed are considered "training services," and when funded through an ITA, these must be on the ETPL per TEGL 8- 19. Comment #94 — Is it required that OJT, IWT, customized training providers are listed in CaIJOBS as a non-ITA provider or be listed on the local ETPL? Resolution — Local Areas are encouraged to enter OJT, IWT, and customized training providers into CaIJOBS as a non-ITA provider. These providers are not required to be on the ETPL; however, the Local Board must inform participants of the OJT, IWT, and customized training options available. In CaIJOBS, these providers would be listed as either ETPL (ITA) or Local Providers (non-ITA). Comment #95 — If all elements of the Draft Directive become final, it will take all the time of one full-time employee to implement them. Additional funding and training would have to be provided by the state. Resolution —The EDD will offer training, and quarterly meetings with the ETPL Coordinators to provide technical assistance. Questions and concerns regarding Local Area's allocations can be directed to the Local Board's Regional Advisor. Page 18 of 25 Comment #96— What about programs that are offered in English and Spanish? Should those be listed separately, like programs that are online or in -person? BPPE does not mandate combining of program data for English and Spanish courses. Resolution — If the curriculum between a Spanish and an English program is the same, then the program only needs to be entered once. The description of the program should indicate that the program is offered in both English and Spanish. If the curriculum between the two programs is different, then the programs should be listed separately, per DOL ETP reporting requirements. In -Demand Comment #97 — Who verifies whether a program is in -demand? The ETPL coordinator of the Local Board that nominated the provider? And what about priority sectors of adjacent or even far -away Local Boards? Resolution —The Local Board is responsible for verifying that a program be for occupations in in -demand industry sectors identified bythe state, region, or Local Board. In -demand or priority industry sector information must be verified with the State Board and/or Local Board. CA ETPL programs would then be available for other Local Boards to use. If the Local Board chooses to have a local ETPL, the Local Board would determine if the program is in -demand in their area. Comment #98— In -demand industry sectors are locally defined. How do you identify occupations (by SOC code) that are in -demand as determined by the state? Where is this list located? Would you use state in -demand to determine state eligibility, then use local in - demand to determine local eligibility? Resolution — California's Unified Strategic Workforce Development Plan has language on what is considered an in -demand occupation, as well as a list of occupations that Local Boards can use to justify state in -demand requirements. Local Boards would then apply their own local requirements for their local ETPL eligibility. You can find a link to the plan on the California Workforce Development Board's website. Local Board Policy Comment #99 — Does the state have a guide for the specific documents that contribute to "sufficient records"? Resolution —This requirement is to ensure providers are submitting accurate data to the Local Board. Providers can be removed for intentionally supplying inaccurate data. What constitutes as "sufficient records" needs to be addressed in the Local Board's local policy. Comment #100 — If the provider that went out of business is the only provider in a reasonable distance, Local Boards may not be able to provide a comparable training alternative. Must we provide travel costs if the client wishes to go? Resolution —This would be something to address in the Local Board's local policy. Page 19 of 25 Comment #101— Regarding the requirements for Local Board policy listed at the bottom of page 5, isn't this already covered by BPPE Approval/Exemption or WASC accreditation? Resolution — This requirement is for providers who are deemed exempt per CEC 94874, and are not regionally accredited by an accrediting institution. Comment #102— Current local policy is to have individuals research and visit 3 schools that provide the training that the individual is interested in, before they select which school they wish to attend. Does this supersede the requirements described in Section E, page 5, and we should no longer have the individuals go to 3 schools first? Resolution — Local Boards can continue with this type of procedure, as described in their local policy. Local vs CA ETPL Comment #103— Without clear guidelines, Local Boards cannot expect the participants to understand why certain local programs are available in the state, but not in our Local Area. It also makes it confusing for the participant when they are reverse referred from that training provider and we will not approve the training locally, but it can be added to the CA ETPL. Resolution —The state is working with the vendor to display CA and local ETPL programs differently. This distinction in the system should help clarify what programs are available to participants, depending on where they are located. TEGL 8-19 allows for Local Boards to continue deciding what programs are allowed on their local ETPL. Comment #104— If a Local Board utilizes the CA ETPL, CaIJOBS serves as the "local list of training providers and programs," correct? Is it possible for the Local Board to make incumbent worker training provider information available when this is by definition only for a specific employer and a specific group of employed individuals? Resolution —The list available to the public includes training providers and programs that are on the ETPL. Any additional training providers that are not on the ETPL (non-ITA) can be entered as a local provider in CaIJOBS and only viewed by staff. The IWT may be eligible for, but not required to be on, the ETPL. Comment #105— Can state and local eligibility be conducted simultaneously? Resolution — Local Boards can review the provider and program at the same time for both CA and local ETPL eligibility, but they need to review the provider for the appropriate requirements (i.e. local ETPL has additional requirements to eligibility that do not effect eligibility for the CA ETPL). Also, CA ETPL eligibility review must happen first, because if they are no longer eligible per CA ETPL requirements, then they cannot be on the local ETPL. Comment #106— For the purpose of review for continued eligibility, does local ETPL refer to the geographic boundaries of the Local Board or the training providers that are under contract to the Local Board for payment of ITAs? Resolution —The local ETPL includes all providers that are on the CA ETPL, and meet that Local Board's local ETPL requirements. Page 20 of 25 Comment #107 —Local Boards may have additional criteria in order to be listed locally. For those who do not meet our local requirements, we are expected to list and manage them for the CA ETPL even though we will not use them locally? For both initial and continued eligibility? What happens when a provider has an onsite program and have no enrollments? We are expected to monitor them for compliance, review their performance, and provide technical assistance even though they aren't utilized? Resolution — If a provider and/or program meets the state requirements for the ETPL, and their business is headquartered in Local Area A, then Local Board A must nominate this provider profile to the CA ETPL. If the provider also has programs located in Local Area A, then Local Board A must review and nominate those programs for inclusion on the ETPL—even if this means the provider would not receive any participants. The Local Area can choose to only use their local ETPL for serving their participants, but the providers on the CA ETPL still should be available for other Local Boards to use. Local Board A would monitor for compliance, review performance, and provide technical assistance. The Local Board can delist the provider if the provider has not served at least one Title I, subtitle B enrollment during the previous two program years. See "Training Provider Continued Eligibility Criteria" for requirements to be reinstated to the ETPL. Comment #108 — Will there be copy and paste functionality added or radio button to add a program to the local ETPL? Resolution — CaIJOBS includes the ability to copy program data and create duplicate programs as needed via the "Duplicate" button in the Education and Training Programs tab. See Attachment 5 for more guidance on how to navigate CaIJOBS. Comment #109 —As written, it appears that providers outside the Local Area must be included on the local ETPL, if there is no specific local criteria. What is the reasoning behind requiring all CA ETPL to be also on the local ETPL? We don't include out -of -area training on our local ETPL, but if a participant requests it, we will consider it on a case -by -case basis. Local Boards should have the autonomy to consider allowing interested participants to attend out -of -area providers on a case -by -case basis. Resolution —A local ETPL is available for Local Boards to require additional criteria (such as location) for providers to meet, in order for them to serve participants using WIOA funds. If no additional requirements are added, then the Local ETPL will mirror the CA ETPL. Comment #110 — Providers and programs may be eligible for the CA ETPL but not on the local ETPL. Are Local Boards required to nominate them, based only on the requirements of the Directive, will now be responsible to manage that provider and programs on the ETPL? Resolution —Yes. If the provider meets the CA ETPL requirements, Local Boards are responsible for nominating providers headquartered in their Local Area to the CA ETPL. They are also responsible for nominating programs located within their Local Area to the ETPL, assuming they meet the CA ETPL requirements. Per TEGL 8-19, page 5, Local Boards can only use CA ETPL requirements when reviewing providers for the CA ETPL. After conducting state Page 21 of 25 eligibility, the Local Board can then review the provider for local eligibility using their Local ETPL-specific requirements. Other Comment #111— Who are the stakeholders involved in developing the CA ETPL policies and procedures? Resolution — The California Workforce Development Board, Local Boards, regulatory agencies, and providers. Comment #112— Can an enrolled Youth in a Title I Youth program enroll in ITAs on ETPL if they are over 18 or do they need to be enrolled as an Adult? Resolution —An ITA can be used for an Out -of -School Youth ages 16 to 24, Adults, or Dislocated Workers. In -school Youth cannot receive an ITA. Comment #113 — Who is responsible for uploading documents into the provider's profile? Resolution — Both the provider or the ETPL Coordinator have the ability to upload documents. Comment #114— ETPL Coordinator job qualifications need to be defined. Currently if an ETPL Coordinator is not the MIS Administrator, they are excluded from invitations to MIS Admin meetings and no alternative provisions are made to train new ETPL Coordinators. Resolution —To ensure Local ETPL Coordinators receive the training and support needed, the EDD will provide quarterly ETPL Coordinator webinars similar to the monthly MIS Administrator call. In addition, Local ETPL Coordinators can contact the State ETPL Coordinator and wsbetp[@edd.ca.Rov to request assistance. Comment #115 — Where would providers and/or Local Board staff go for resources on how to navigate the Provider Module in CaIJOBS? Resolution — Providers and Local Board staff can access the ETPL Guide Card, which is attachment 5 of this Directive. Local Board staff can also access the Provider Services User Guide located in the Staff Online Resources menu of CalJOBS. Comment #116 — The "CRS" designation is confusing to both providers and staff as it is not spelled out or explained anywhere. Can this be removed if it is no longer relevant? Resolution —The state is currently working with the vendor to improve the ETPL module and make it more streamlined, and will look into removing the CRS designation. Comment #117— What staff privileges are associated to changing the Local Board responsible for the provider on page 58 of the ETPL Guide Card? Resolution —This is available to any staff with an ETPL Coordinator account. Out -of -State Providers Comment #118— Can out-of-state providers have training paid for through an ITA? Page 22 of 25 Resolution —All training providers, other than Distance Education training providers, that have training sites located only outside of CA cannot be listed on the CA ETPL. Local Boards cannot utilize an ITA with out-of-state training providers unless leveraging an approved ETPL reciprocal agreement. Please see ETPL Reciprocal Agreements (WSD22-08) for more information on the use of approved agreements. Comment #119 — Can WIOA funds be used for out-of-state provider training, as long as the provider is on the ETPL in the state where their headquarters is located? Resolution —AII training providers, other than Distance Education training providers, that have training sites located only outside of CA cannot be listed on the CA ETPL. Local Boards cannot utilize an ITA with out-of-state training providers unless leveraging an approved ETPL reciprocal agreement. Please see ETPL Reciprocal Agreements (WSD22-08) for more information on the use of approved agreements. Comment #120 — When Local Boards contract with an out-of-state provider, how is EEO monitoring conducted? What about going through a formal procurement process? Resolution —To align with 20 CFR 680.320, the directive has been updated to remove the ability for Local Boards to contract with a provider listed on another state's ETPL. All training providers, other than Distance Education training providers, that have training sites located only outside of CA cannot be listed on the CA ETPL. Local Boards cannot utilize an ITA with out- of-state training providers unless leveraging an approved ETPL reciprocal agreement. Please see ETPL Reciprocal Agreements (WSD22-08) for more information on the use of approved agreements. Pre -apprentices hips Comment #121— Do pre -apprenticeships need to meet placement? In the last Directive, this was spelled out. Resolution —Yes, the pre -apprenticeship programs that are on the ETPL need to meet the same standards as the other postsecondary programs. Comment #122 —Suggestion to change pre -apprenticeship language to read: must provide training that "leads" to an industry -recognized credential or certificate. Resolution — No changes were made to the directive as a result of this comment. Comment #123 —Can the state please elaborate on what Local Boards must require of pre - apprenticeship training in the building and construction trades, especially those related to Multi -Craft Core Curriculum (MC3)? Resolution — If WIOA funds are being used to send participants to a construction pre - apprenticeship, the state and Local Boards must ensure the pre -apprenticeships follow Multi - Craft Core Curriculum (MC3) standards. Comment #124— If pre -apprenticeships are not required to be on the ETPL, is their Inclusion solely to use ITAs if it does lead to a credential? What does listed on ETPL and used in Page 23 of 25 conjunction with an ITA mean? I thought ITAs and ETPL went hand in hand. Is it possible to get a link to MC3 in the policy? If a pre -apprenticeship is listed on ETPL must it be connected with a Registered Apprenticeship Program? Resolution — Pre -apprenticeships are considered an individualized career service, and are not required to be on the ETPL. However, if a Local Area wants to utilize an ITA, the program must meet the requirements to be listed on the ETPL. The pre -apprenticeship must meet the definition of occupational skills training and award an industry -recognized credential. If it does not meet these requirements, it cannot be on the ETPL. In order to be eligible for the ETPL, pre -apprenticeships must have a Letter of Commitment from a DOL or DIR DAS apprenticeship. The last paragraph on page 8 states that Local Boards should prefer pre -apprenticeships that are partnered with DIR DAS Approved apprenticeships, Here (PDF) are some resources for understanding Multi -Craft Core Curriculum. Third Party Comment #125 — Isn't this third party subcontracting requirement applicable only to public colleges and universities? Resolution —This applies to both public and private provides accredited by WASC. Comment #126 — Why are only WASC-accredited institutions limited from providing courses via a third party if they participated in development of the curriculum and ensure responsibility for the curriculum by issuing the related credential? Resolution — WASC providers do not have their third party courses reviewed during accreditation. To protect WIOA funds, third party vendors that directly receive tuition fees are not allowed to provide training unless the third party vendor provider and program is on the ETPL. Comment #127 — Can an accredited training provider sub -contract to another training provider, as long as that training provider is accredited by WASC? Resolution — If the subcontracted training provider is directly receiving payment, they must be listed as their own provider on the ETPL. Comment #128 — How do we determine which Local Board conducted continued eligibility for the provider? Resolution —The review record in CalJOBS will show which Local Board completed the review. Worker's Comp/Supplemental Job Displacement Benefit (SJDB) Comment #129 — Has this passage about removing Workers Comp providers been discussed with the agencies that currently use the ETPL (e.g. Worker's Comp, VA, DOR)? We have frequent requests from these agencies to verify and list their providers. Resolution —Yes, the state has discussed this language with other agencies. Comment #130 — ETPL Coordinators get a lot of calls for people looking for worker's comp voucher training. It seems that the worker's comp customers have to guess what to do, and Page 24 of 25 while this clarification in the Directive will give ETPL Coordinators a ready-made response as to why ETPL Coordinators can't assist worker's comp customers, it still leaves worker's comp customers with questions. Resolution —The DIR handles the administration of the Worker's Comp program, which includes informing those in the program of where they can use their voucher. State law requires that vouchers only be used for public schools or providers on the ETPL. Local Boards that receive questions from voucher holders should direct them to their employer, Claims Administrator, or the De ap rtment of Industrial Relations. Comment #131— What are some resources that Local Board staff can use for Worker's Compensation questions? Resolution —A few resources regarding Workers' Compensation include the EDD's ETPL webpage, which has a paragraph on Workers' Compensation, and Chapter S of the DIR's Handbook on the Workers' Compensation program.

A complaint is defined here as a written expression by a party alleging a violation of the Act, regulations promulgated under the Act, recipient grants, sub agreements, or other specific agreements under the Act, including terms and conditions of employment of such participants in employment training programs. All complaints, amendments and withdrawals shall be in writing. These procedures are intended to resolve matters which concern policies, procedures or action(s) arising in connection with WIOA programs operated by each LWDA grant recipient and sub recipient under the Act. These procedures shall not be construed as affecting any other available legal remedy outside of the WIOA complaint process (i.e., disputes regarding terms and conditions of employment of any employee who is not a participant), either separately or simultaneously, that a person may wish to pursue in the resolution of a non-WIOA complaint. Also, these procedures do not restrict the LWDA grant recipient staff in carrying out informal discussion Procedures do not restrict the LWDA grant recipient staff in carrying out informal discussion and resolution of any problems outside of and without resort to the formal complaint procedure. A. The following principles and rules apply to all complaints at all steps of the complaint procedures: All complaints must be made in writing within 180 days of the alleged occurrence, except complaints alleging fraud or criminal activity. 2. All persons filing a complaint shall be free from restraint, coercion, reprisal, or discrimination. Good faith efforts shall be made to informally resolve the complaint prior to the scheduled hearing. Complainants have the right to withdraw their complaints (in writing) at any time prior to the hearing. A complainant may amend his/her complaint to correct technical deficiencies but not to add issues. 3. Complainants shall have the right to be represented at their own expense by person(s) of their choosing at all levels of the complaint process. 4. Upon enrollment into employment or training, participants shall be provided with a written description of these procedures, including notification of their right to file complaints and instructions for filing. An employer of participants, including private -for -profit employers of participants, may use this or other complaint resolution procedures so long as the participant is informed of the complaint resolution procedure they are to follow and the time frames governing review of complaints are met. EXHIBIT H A "participant", within the meaning of these procedures, is an individual who receives employment -training services under a program funded by Santa Ana LWDA. The Complaint Resolution Procedures contained herein (or the alternative procedures which an employer may use) shall be available to participants to resolve disputes regarding items and conditions of employment of such participants in employment training programs. However, such procedures shall not be used to resolve disputes regarding terms and conditions of employment of any employee who is not a participant as defined herein. 5. If a complaint does not receive a decision at the LWDA grant recipient level within 60 days of filing the complaint or receives an unsatisfactory decision, the complainant then has a right to request a review of the complaint by the Governor. 6. Complainants must initially file and exhaust LWDA grant recipient/hearing procedures prior to appealing to the State except where the State determines that the LWDA grant recipient's procedures are not in compliance with the State's procedures. III. Procedures for Handling Complaints at the LWDA Level A. Receipt Complaints Pursuant to the WIOA regulations found at 20 CFR, Section 683.600, the LWDA administrative entities have the responsibility to conduct hearings and resolve complaints made by individuals about the administration of programs in the LWDA. "LWDA level" encompasses LWDA administrative entity and employers to which the administrative entity has delegated the complaint resolution process. The following comprise the guidelines for resolving issues arising in connection with WIOA programs operated by the Santa Ana LWDA including resolutions of complaints arising from actions, such as audit disallowances or the imposition of sanctions taken by the Governor with respect to audit findings, investigations or monitoring reports. 1. Form and Filing of Compliant Official filing date of the compliant is the date the written complaint is received. The filing of the complaint with the Santa Ana LWDA Equal Employment Opportunity Officer shall be considered as a request for hearing and a decision must be issued within 60 days. The complaint must be in writing and must be signed and dated. The complaint should also contain the following information: a. Full name, telephone number, if any, and mailing address of the complainant; b. Full name, telephone number, and mailing address of the agency involved (respondent); c. Clear and concise statement of facts including dates constituting alleged violation; d. What provisions under the Act, regulations, grant or other agreements under the Act, are believed to have been violated; EXHIBIT H e. Remedy sought by the complainant; and f. If the complainant is a private or public entity or corporation, and not a natural person, the filing of the complaint must be duly authorized by the governing body of such entity or corporation. The absence of any of the requested information shall not be a basis for dismissing the complaint. A copy of the complaint must be sent to the respondent and both parties notified of the opportunity for an informal resolution. At each step of the complaint process, the complainant must be notified in writing of the next procedural step. 2. Informal Conference Informal conferences will be utilized by the Santa Ana LWDA to resolve complaints; however, such informal conferences shall not extend the time within which a decision must be issued after receipt of a complaint. Attempts at informal resolution will commence with two (2) weeks of the date of filing of the complaint. a. The EEO Officer will review the case and ascertain facts prior to the conference so that appropriate resolution can take place at the time of this meeting whenever possible. b. Although the complainant should be encouraged to attend this conference, his/her failure to do so should not preclude his/her right to request a hearing on the matter. c. If mutually satisfactory resolution results and the Santa Ana LWDA concurs, the EEO Officer will write a brief report for the file stating the issues and resolution. The matter shall then be considered closed. d. If resolution does not result, the complainant shall be provided the necessary information and assistance to request a hearing if he/she so desires. 3. Request for Hearing a. As in the case of the complaint, the request for a hearing should be put in writing and be filed in person or by mail. A governing board resolution of authorization to appeal should also be submitted when appropriate. The request should be filled with: Daniel Durham Sr. Personnel Analyst — EEO Officer 20 Civic Center Drive, M-24 Santa Ana, CA 92701 (714) 647-5330 EXHIBIT H b. A hearing will be scheduled by the EEO Officer within thirty (30) days of the date of filing of the complaint. 4. Notice of Hearing Upon receipt of the request for hearing, the complainant and the respondent will be notified in writing of the hearing ten (10) calendar days prior to the date of the hearing. The ten-day notice may be shortened with the written consent of the parties. A decision will be issued by the Santa Ana LWDA within sixty (60) days of the date of filing of the complaint. The hearing notice shall be in writing and contain the following information: a. The date of notice, name of the complainant, and the name of the party against whom the complaint is filed. b. The date, time and place of hearing before an impartial hearing officer. c. A statement(s) of the alleged violation(s) d. Advise as to where information or assistance may be obtained, and the name, address, and telephone number of the Santa Ana LWDA Equal Employment Opportunities (EEO) Officer who can answer inquiries. B. Conduct of Hearing The hearing shall be conducted in an informal manner with strict rules of evidence not applicable. Unnecessary technicalities should be avoided. It should provide the flexibility to enable adjustment to the circumstances presented. 1. The hearing officer shall have complete independence to obtain facts and make decisions. The hearing officer shall be in a position to render impartial decisions and thus should not be subordinate to the Santa Ana LWDA or its sub recipients. The hearing officer will be selected from a list of names on file with the EEO Officer. 2. Full regard must be given to the requirements of due process to insure a fair and impartial hearing. 3. The hearing office designated by the EEO Officer to function in a quasi-judicial capacity should begin the hearing by summarizing the record and the issue and should explain the manner in which the hearing will be conducted, making sure that everyone involved understands the proceedings. Such explanations should be adapted to the needs of the specific situation. The hearing officer might take testimony under oath or affirmation to give some assurance of veracity to the hearing. EXHIBIT H 4. The burden of proof should be reasonable and flexible, dependent upon the circumstances of the case involved. The hearing officer determines the order of proof. Generally, the party making the complaint has the obligation of establishing his or her case and should be examined first. 5. The party involved should have the right to be represented (at their own expense) if he/she so desires. Other he/she is limited to his/her own abilities and those to the hearing officer in obtaining testimony in the case. 6. It is important that the hearing officer obtain the fullest information for the record. If the parties involved, or their representatives, do not know how to ask the right or pertinent questions in pursuing their right to due process, it shall be necessary for the hearing officer to step in to have all the materials and relevant facts elicited. 7. The practice in informal hearings is generally not to apply strict rules of evidence in obtaining facts. However, the quantity of evidence required to support a decision on an issue should be sufficiently credible that the state (or other appropriate agency), upon reviewing the decision, would conclude that the decision is supported by substantial evidence. 8. The hearing officer should attempt to negotiate a resolution of the issue at any time prior to the conclusion of the hearing. 9. Within ten (10) days of the conclusion of the hearing, the hearing officer will issue a recommended decision to the LWDA for final determination. The recommended decision shall be in writing and may be accepted, rejected or modified by the Santa Ana Workforce Development Board. C. Issuance of Decision Within sixty (60) calendar days of filing of the complaint, the Santa Ana LWDA shall issue a written decision to all parties by first class mail. The final decision shall contain the following information: 1. The name of the parties involved. 2. A statement of the alleged violation and issues related to the alleged violation. 3. A statement of the facts. 4. The decision and the reasons for the decision. 5. A statement of corrective action, if any, to be taken. 6. Notice of the right to request, within ten (10) calendar days of receipt of the decision, a review of the decision by the State Review Panel. 11 EXHIBIT H D. Record of Hearing An administrative file containing support documents on the complaint resolution process hearing conducted will be retained by the Santa Ana LWDA. The purpose of a record is to serve as substantiation of the process followed by the Santa Ana LWDA on the resolution of the issues and the results. This information would then be available for subsequent review in the event the matter is raised with the State. Such records must be retained for a three- year period after the grant has been officially closed out. The Santa Ana LWDA's written decision will be included in the record. Evidence received at the hearing, notes by the hearing officer, stenographer's notes and tape recordings may also be used. E. Establishment of Complaint Procedures In accordance with Section 683.600, each employing agency including private -for -profit employers of participants under the Act is required to establish a complaint procedure for resolving matters relating to the terms and conditions of employment. Employers may operate their own grievance system or may utilize the Santa Ana LWIDA's established procedures under Section 683.600. At a minimum these procedures must include: Written notice, upon enrollment into employment training services, of the scope and availability of such procedures. Employer's grievance procedures shall be set forth in a written document and must meet the regulation mandate that a complaint will be resolved with sixty (60) days from the date the complaint was filed. A copy of employer's grievance procedure shall be provided to each participant upon enrollment in employment training. 2. Written notice, at the time the grievance is filed, of the procedures under which the grievance will be processed. 3. Written notification of the disposition of the grievance and a written decision shall be issued within thirty (30) days of the filing of the grievance unless a present and long established grievance specifically provides other limits; and 4, Written notification of.the participant's right to request a review of the employer's decision by the Santa Ana LWDA and the State Review Panel in accordance with Section 683.600. IV. Procedures for Handling Complaints at the State Level Section 181 (c) of the Act and the WIOA regulations at 20 CFR, Section 683.600 (d) requires the Governor to establish a State Review process of complaints filed at the LWDA grant recipient level and of complaints initially filed at the State level.

The recommended decision shall be in writing and may be accepted, rejected or modified by the State Review Panel. A. Form and Filing of Complaint. 1.

LIABILTY COVERAGE I_111L11 T 7 �a�'r7 h� R'1 TJ The following is added to SECTION II, Paragraph A.1., Who Is An Insured: 1. a. Any incorporated entity of which the Named Insured owns a majority of the voting stock on the date of inception of this Coverage Form; provided that, b. The insurance afforded by this provision A.1. does not apply to any such entity that is an insured under any other liability policy providing auto coverage. 2. Any organization you newly acquire or form, other than a limited liability company, partnership or joint venture, and over which you maintain majority ownership interest. The insurance afforded by this provision A.2.: a. Is effective on the acquisition or formation date, and is afforded only until the end of the policy period of this Coverage Form, or the next anniversary of its inception date, whichever is earlier. b. Does not apply to: (1) Bodily injury or property damage caused by an accident that occurred before you acquired or formed the organization; or (2) Any such organization that is an insured under any other liability policy providing auto coverage. 3. Any person or organization that you are obligated to provide Insurance where required by a written contract or agreement is an insured, but only with respect to legal responsibility for acts or omissions of a person for whom Liability Coverage is afforded under this policy. 4. An employee of yours is an insured while operating an auto hired or rented under a contract or agreement in that employee's name, with your permission, while performing duties related to the conduct of your business.

For any covered "auto" you own, this Coverage Form provides primary insurance. For any covered "auto" you don't own, the insurance provided by this Coverage Form is excess over any other collectible insurance. However, while a covered "auto" which is a "trailer" is connected to another vehicle, the Covered Autos Liability Coverage this Coverage Form provides for the "trailer" is: (1) Excess while it is connected to a motor vehicle you do not own; or (2) Primary while it is connected to a covered "auto" you own. b. For Hired Auto Physical Damage Coverage, any covered "auto" you lease, hire, rent or borrow is deemed to be a covered "auto" you own. However, any "auto" that is leased, hired, rented or borrowed with a driver is not a covered "auto". c. Regardless of the provisions of Paragraph a. above, this Coverage Form's Covered Autos Liability Coverage is primary for any liability assumed under an "insured contract". d. When this Coverage Form and any other Coverage Form or policy covers on the same basis, either excess or primary, we will pay only our share. Our share is the proportion that the Limit of Insurance of our Coverage Form bears to the total of the limits of all the Coverage Forms and policies covering on the same basis. 6. Premium Audit a. The estimated premium for this Coverage Form is based on the exposures you told us you would have when this policy began. We will compute the final premium due when we determine your actual exposures. The estimated total premium will be credited against the final premium due and the first Named Insured will be billed for the balance, if any. The due date for the final premium or retrospective premium is the date shown as the due date on the bill. If the estimated total premium exceeds the final premium due, the first Named Insured will get a refund. b. If this policy is issued for more than one year, the premium for this Coverage Form will be computed annually based on our rates or premiums in effect at the beginning of each year of the policy. 7. Policy Period, Coverage Territory Under this Coverage Form, we cover "accidents" and "losses" occurring: a. During the policy period shown in the Declarations; and b. Within the coverage territory. The coverage territory is: (1) The United States of America; (2) The territories and possessions of the United States of America; (3) Puerto Rico; (4) Canada; and (5) Anywhere in the world if a covered "auto" of the private passenger type is leased, hired, rented or borrowed without a driver for a period of 30 days or less, provided that the "insured's" responsibility to pay damages is determined in a "suit" on the merits, in the United States of America, the territories and possessions of the United States of America, Puerto Rico or Canada, or in a settlement we agree to. We also cover "loss" to, or "accidents" involving, a covered "auto" while being transported between any of these places. Form No: CA 00 01 10 13 Policy No: 7015271690 Policy ; Page: 12 of 16 Po' .
