Not supplanting. Describe how the State agency ensures that costs attributed to the E&T program are not supplanting funds used for other existing educational programs. Essential Education is only offered by institutions who have purchased the program. For WorkKeys, all costs are covered by Workforce Centers. Cost parity. Describe how the State agency ensures that costs charged to E&T do not exceed the costs charged for non-E&T participants. All Service Agreements must meet DCF’s established rates or the rates offered to the general public, whichever is less. If the cost to provide a service is less than the established rate or there is not an established rate, the rate that is tied to the Service Agreement will always be what is charged to the general public for the same service or the lesser of the two. For example: community college courses and trainings are charged at the same tuition and fee rates as the general public (ie comparable tuition).

Include timeframes being reported (e.g. denominator and numerator) Number and percentage of clients who successfully complete the component.
