Comment#58—With the change in instruction delivery due to COVID,will training providers <br /> already listed on ETPL have to create new listings for on-line programs? <br /> Resolution—Yes. Per Attachment 1, "If the program is offered with multiple modes of delivery, <br /> curriculum, or course lengths, the program must be entered separately for each variation." <br /> Please reference the definition of a Training Program in Attachment 2. <br /> Comment#59—Online training is really limited, particularly by providers outside of California. <br /> There are many quality training programs that initiate and have headquarters outside of <br /> California.The ETPL makes it difficult to find and access these providers. Additionally, online <br /> courses (without physical operations) are not easily added which is a disincentive. <br /> Resolution — Distance Education providers can be headquartered outside of CA, but they must <br /> only offer distance education courses. If they only have physical training locations outside of <br /> CA, then they are considered an out-of-state provider and cannot be on the CA ETPL; however, <br /> an approved reciprocal agreement may be used. If they have physical locations in CA, but are <br /> headquartered outside CA, they are still considered an in-state provider and can be on the <br /> ETPL if they meet eligibility requirements. Per the Education Code Section 94801.5, Distance <br /> Education private postsecondary education institutions must register with BPPE, unless they <br /> provide undergraduate or graduate degrees. <br /> Comment#60—What about providers that provide both distance and in-person programs? Or <br /> programs that are hybrid partially distance and partially in-person? <br /> Resolution —If the provider offers alternative or "hybrid" in-person and online programs, and <br /> have a physical location in California,they are an in-state provider. If the program is offered <br /> with multiple modes of delivery, different curriculum, and/or different course lengths, the <br /> program must be entered separately for each variation. Please reference the definition of a <br /> Training Program in Attachment 2. <br /> Comment#61—CaIJOBS offers a screen for choosing "Duration" with options of more than <br /> one intensity, duration and schedule. CaIJOBS also offers a "Scheduling" screen that could be <br /> updated by GSI to allow a selection for in-person and/or distance learning if you want to track <br /> it. Could these be used instead of creating separate program entries in CaIJOBS for a single <br /> program that only has one listing with the accrediting agency, one curriculum, one cost and <br /> one set of performance?Shouldn't CaIJOBS listings match the exact titles and programs <br /> approved by the accrediting agency? <br /> Resolution—Programs with multiple modes of delivery, different lengths of instruction, and/or <br /> different curriculum must be listed separately to comply with ETP Report requirements. <br /> Program details should match the brochures available on the provider's website. <br /> Comment#62—Who is responsible for initial and continued eligibility for Distance Education <br /> providers? <br /> Resolution —The State ETPL Coordinator is responsible for the initial and continued eligibility <br /> of Distance Education providers. <br /> EEO <br /> Page 13 of 25 <br />
