- STEP Partner Network Contact Information - STEP Partner Reviews - STEP Invoice Process - Oregon District Map - Dates to Remember - Creating Positive Outcomes with E&T - Workforce Development - SSP Interagency Connections - SNAP E&T Central Office Contacts - Additional Program Information This handbook is updated at least once a year, prior to the new FFY, and then as needed with new program or process guidance. The SNAP E&T Team develops a STEP Provider Proposal each FFY. SNAP E&T Providers must submit a SNAP E&T Provider Proposal every FFY to apply to become or apply to continue being part of Oregon’s SNAP E&T Provider Network. The proposal outlines the process in which a SNAP E&T participant flows through a SNAP E&T provider’s program from beginning to end. It also outlines all administrative processes to meet program requirements and details of each SNAP E&T service component that will be provided to SNAP E&T participants. SNAP E&T Provider Proposals are extensively reviewed, ensuring all elements of the proposer’s SNAP E&T program are outlined. This includes how the SNAP E&T services will be targeted to meet the specific needs of the SNAP E&T participants case plan and all of the costs associated with implementing their proposed program. Describe how the State agency, intermediaries, and E&T providers share participant data and information. Include the names of any MIS systems (or other modes of communication) used. The OregONEligiblity (ONE) System which is the State Agency’s certification system, has a daily interface (data transfer) with the Oregon Employment Department’s iMatchSkills (iMS) system. SNAP E&T Providers enter all SNAP E&T required participant data into iMS. If the State uses a MIS system, describe the E&T related data that is tracked and stored in those systems (e.g. referrals, noncompliance with program requirements, provider determination, etc.), and whether the system(s) interact with each other. The data shared from ODHS ONE to OED iMS includes: Participant’s identifying information, benefit information, ABAWD status, etc. While all of this information is shared with OED, it is not all available to or displayed for the STEP Providers using iMS. iMS shares ABAWD compliance and non-compliance information with ONE, based on logic developed and approved by ODHS and the required ABAWD hours entered into the participant’s iMS profile by ODHS. Participant information stored in iMS includes: Demographics; Highest level of education completed; Contact information; SNAP E&T Employment Assessment; SNAP E&T Case Plan; Components provided; Support Services provided; Orientation, Assessment and Case Plan completion; Completed Educational Components; Credential, Certificate, and Measurable Skill Gain attainment; Case Management Notes; Providers contact information; Labor Data; Items uploaded by the participant such as resume. Describe the State agency’s process for monitoring E&T providers’ program and fiscal operations. Include plans for direct monitoring such as visits, as well as indirect monitoring such as reviewing program data, financial invoices, etc. Program Management Evaluations (PME) – Program/Fiscal: Oregon conducts SNAP E&T Program Management Evaluations based on CFR Title 7 | Subtitle B | Chapter II |Subchapter C | Part 275 | Subpart B | 1/29/26, 9:33 AM State Plan OR FY26 - Original Submission https://dam-fns.usda.gov/sites/default/files/microsite/snapet-orfy26stateplan//index.html 45/378
