SUBJECT: Authorizing Advance Payment For One AUSD Staff To Attend DOL Conference
SPECIFIC REOUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
1. RECOMMENDATION:
Authorize the Executive Director, Contra Costa County Private Industry Council,
to pay travel expense and per diem, pursuant to county policy, for one staff member
of Antioch Unified School District to attend Department of Labor School to Work
Transition Grant Bidders Conference in Seattle, Washington on August 11 and in
Kansas City, Missouri on August 14, 1995.
II. FINANCIAL IMPACT
None. One Hundred percent Federal funds.
III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND:
The federal government is funding school to work transition programs. This
initiative is being funded at both the state level and local levels through a
competitive process. At this time California does not have a state grant, making
local agencies eligible to apply. The Contra Costa PIC and Antioch Unified School
District (AUSD) are members of the East County Compact which is developing a
school to work program. Obtaining a federal grant would "jump start" this effort,
which would serve as a model for other County school districts willing to implement
similar programs - saving them development costs.
To have a viable proposal it is necessary to attend the bidders conference, and PIC
staff needs to be accompanied by a school district staff member. At this time, the
East County Compact lacks an independent funding source, and AUSD may be unable
to fund the staff travel from their revenues; if so this will allow us to include one of
their staff.
