Funding

Funding (3)

Q1 What will cause members to receive reduction in funding?

Regarding consistently ineffective member, they will be offered targeted support through TAP partners. If continued ineffectiveness, member funding can be reduced. This process would be coordinated through AEP TAP and the State AEP Office.

Q2 Need a decision – how to handle existing programs that are using AEP funds this year for credit.

You may still support and offer services for transitional for-credit programs and to support students in the process of transitioning into for credit programs, however you will not report those students into TE. If that student is transitioning from a noncredit college or K12 adult school program any outcomes associated with that student in for credit programs will be captured through the AEP/MIS Data Match in the LaunchBoard and will be reported as outcomes for your consortium.

Q3 What does completing the Update Record 9 for CTE actually get us in terms of funding? What does this data point actually mean?

None of the outcomes for AEP are tied to funding in the way that the WIOA Title II payment point system operates. Update Box 9 does impact the ability of AEP to track outcomes for students for reporting to the legislature and for sharing back to the field through the LaunchBoard Adult Ed Data Tab.
