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 CaIIOBS Activity 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
