Do providers on the ETPL remain there permanently, or must they be recertified?
Programs must be periodically determined to be eligible to remain on the ETPL. This determination is to be made within 18 to 24 months of their initial listing and annually thereafter. For example a program that was first listed in the July-September 2002 quarter would be subject to a subsequent eligibility determination in the January-March 2004 quarter, with the determination due to EDD by April 30, 2004. Subsequent eligibility is based on the rates of students completing the program and entering employment. You can find a description of this process on p. 11 of the ETPL Policy and Procedures on the EDD Web site.
The WIA requires that Programs be periodically determined eligible to continue to remain on the ETPL. This determination is to be made within 18 to 24 months of their initial listing and annually thereafter. However, the US Department of Labor has approved California’s formal Waiver Request to this procedure. Therefore, Programs that are listed on the ETPL as initially eligible will continue to be able to provide Training Services to eligible participants. You can find a description of this process in the ETPL Policy and Procedures on the EDD website.
