(July 1, 2017 to June 30, 2018.)

The second part of this training covers the Community Eligibility Provision.

CE's ARE REQUIRED TO PROVIDE TDA WITH A LIST OF SCHOOLS ELIGIBLE OR POTENTIALLY ELIGIBLE FOR THE CEP PROVISION, REGARDLESS OF THEIR INTENT TO PARTICIPATE IN CEP.

This training will include instructions on filling out this required report, training on the basics of CEP, the ISp, and the impact CEP has on other programs. It will also include a timeline of reporting, and other actions that are required once an LEA has become a CEP school.

Business managers for CE's are also invited to attend both of these training's. Note that the Financial Training will be offered the first part of the day, in case some participants do not wish to stay all day. All participants are invited to stay for lunch.
