Please also respond to below questions on the Discussion Board and be prepared to discuss in class.
• Will you change course during start-up or implementation based on what you learn? If so, in what ways?
1. The funding source we have found is designed by the Commonwealth to encourage innovative concepts to support returning citizens. This source requires a 2-month planning phase
2. During the planning phase a committee made up of the partners who entered MOAs will hold regular committee meetings to review the program plan and to recommend improvements. These plans will be reviewed by State funders and approved
3. Recommended changes will be incorporated prior to program implementation.
• What will be your process for identifying key milestones?
As described above we will install a program of measuring the metrics that mater including but not necessarily limited to the following:
a. Initial Cohort Admission
b. Attendance
c. Program completion
d. Admission to Job Readiness Training upon Completion
e. JRT Completion
f. Financial Readiness Training Admission
g. Financial Readiness Completion
h. Placement in Workforce Development
i. Initial Job Placement
j. 30 Job Retention
k. 6-month Job Retention
l. Case management Follow-up
• Who will be responsible for tracking success or challenges with achieving these milestones? How often?
Various metrics will be tracked by whichever staff has direct responsibility. All metrics will be reported to Program Coordinator monthly and reported to funder and CWS quarterly.
• Are there any other strategies you will devise to ensure project success?
1. Develop a promotion campaign including social media and traditional media.
2. Seek additional long term funding sources
3. Monitor the Metrics that Matter
