In order for FNS to monitor the effectiveness of E&T programs State agencies are required to report outcome data on five separate reporting measures: (1) the number and percentage of E&T participants who retain employment 2 quarters and 4 quarters after completing E&T; (2) the median wages for participants with earnings 2 quarters after completion of E&T; (3) the number and percentage of participants that completed a training, education, work experience or on-thejob training component; (4) certain unique characteristics of SNAP E&T participants; and (5) additional reporting requirements for State agencies that pledge to serve all at-risk Able-bodied Adults without Dependents (ABAWDs). State agencies are also required to identify appropriate reporting measures for each proposed component that serves a threshold number of participants of at least 100 a year. State agencies identify the reporting measures for these components in State agencies’ E&T plans and report the outcome data to the Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) through State agencies’ annual reports. State agencies are required to report outcome data annually. Need and Use of the Information: With this information, FNS is able to identify more, and less, successful E&T practices and provide technical assistance to State agencies to improve their E&T programs.
