Current through Register Vol. 56, No. 18, September 16, 2024

(a) The program shall provide individual training grants only if funding from Federal or other sources is not available. Displaced workers potentially eligible for individual training grants shall be required to apply for all Federal, State and other sources of financial aid or assistance.

(b) Service providers shall apply all financial aid awards for tuition, fees and supplies first against those costs before using WDP funds. The service provider shall notify the Department of any and all such awards immediately after having received notice of such award from the awarding agency.

1. All eligible participants are to be made aware of their rights and obligation to apply for financial aid.

2. PELL grants, other tuition assistance or other student aid must be used first for the cost of tuition and fees. WDP funds may be used to supplement these awards.

3. An individual who is potentially eligible for a PELL and/or any other grant but whose grant award cannot be estimated will be eligible for the full amount of the individual training grant allowed under this subchapter provided the Department is reimbursed by the service provider when the other such grant is received.

4. If an individual's eligibility for a PELL or other grant has not been determined at the time of enrollment, but the individual becomes eligible after a Workforce Development Partnership grant payment has been made, the amount of the WDP grant must be recalculated. The amount of the PELL or other grant(s) and the WDP grant will be combined. If the total of the combined grants exceeds the total cost of the training, the difference between the total of the combined grants and the training cost must be reimbursed by the training provider to the Department.
