Vote: Yes: . J. Weischedel, C. Wuertz, L. Gonzalez
- Discussion Only – Timely MOU invoicing – Guillermo Mendoza
The Consortium Director recommended that agencies receiving invoices contact their respective business offices to request from the service provider when they would receive their end of Quarter invoice. Agencies sending invoices would contact their business offices to ensure invoices would be sent out ASAP and not to wait until the last minute.
- New CTE Education Code – Guillermo Mendoza
The new CTE guidelines require a Labor Market Study prior to implementation of a new CTE program.
- Discussion Only – DRC 2022-25 Three-Year Plan Template – Guillermo Mendoza
The DRC 2022-25 Three-Year Plan template was reviewed. Additional Metric numbers and assessment numbers were entered. Spending targets for Actuals were taken from the Adult Education Program Fiscal Management Guide. It was agreed that a 2% increase in projected student enrollment was doable. Number of Participants for Program Areas were also entered. Numbers for CVUSD, COD, and PSUSD would be forthcoming.
- Use of AE Pipeline/Launch Board – Guillermo Mendoza
The AE Pipeline/Launch Board numbers for the DRC are inflated. CAEP has acknowledged the errors and is working to correct the error, however the corrections may not come in time for the submittal of the CAEP Three-Year Plan.
- Select Additional Three-Year Plan Committee Planning Dates
None were selected. Metric numbers would be submitted via email/Google Docs along with additional narrative to remaining textboxes.
- Committee Planning – WASC, WIOA, and Workforce Planning Goals
The Consortium Director recommended the use of WASC, WIOA, and Workforce Planning Goals as an excellent resource for additional narrative to supplement/reinforce the DRC Three-Year Plan.
- Select Appointments for Member Metrics, if Necessary
No dates were selected, rather members would verify Member Metrics via email.
