Abstract: The Office of Indian
Education Professional Development
(OIE PD) Grants program wishes to
implement (1) A Semi-Annual
Participant Report (SAPR), (2) a
Participant Follow-Up Protocol, and (3)
an Employment Verification survey. OIE
PD grantees will submit participant
contact and project service information
on the SAPR twice a year. The OIE PD
Grants program staff will use the
Participant Follow-Up Protocol to
collect employment and continuing
education information from IE PD
participants who are not in an approved
and active deferment once they have
exited the program. IE PD participants
will initiate contact with IE PD staff
within 6 months of exiting the PD
program and every 6 months thereafter
for the length of their service payback
period to report their employment and
continuing education information. IE PD
participants working in a local
educational agency enrolling 5 percent
or more of American Indian/Alaska
Native students will give the
Employment Verification form to their
principal or LEA representative to
complete. The OIE PD grants program

participants will submit employment
verification forms to employers, starting
upon employment and continuing every
6 months thereafter. The information
collected through the SAPR, the
Participant Follow-Up Protocol, and the
Employment Verification Form is
necessary to (1) Assess the performance
of the IE PD program on its Government
Performance Results Act (GPRA)
measures, (2) determine if IE PD
participants are fulfilling the terms of
their service payback requirements, and
(3) provide project-monitoring and
compliance information to IE PD Grants
program staff.
