- 2019 Data Conference
- Staff Reporting and Reimbursement Connection Data Conference Presentation Contact: Lori Adams (lori.adams@nebraska.gov) or Pam Tagart (pam.tagart@nebraska.gov) (05/16/2019)
So sorry we missed the data conference but we have recorded our presentation located at: https://youtu.be/tm4U7-D75mY . Please view this 15 minute video and if you have any additional questions, you may contact one of us. This is a change to the process for these grants. In the past changes to staff reporting were allowed for almost a year after the school year, that will not be allowed starting in 2018-2019.The most important pieces to take away from this presentation are:-
- Ensure you have reported your reimbursable staff with positions in Staff Reporting correctly on or before 6/15 (Special Program Indicator and Position Assignment are important when NDE determines if staff are qualified and what program/report to include them in). No changes will be allowed after 6/30 unless there are extenuating circumstances. Time and Effort logs should also be completed by 6/30.
- There is an updated report in NSSRS Validation/Verification reports for Staff called Staff Reporting for GMS Grant Applications. The reimbursable staff for each program must be Qualified = Y and listed on the appropriate report (you can use a drop down to see the additional reports by funding). If the staff are not listed on the report or under the Qualified = N, these are staff that will not be reimbursable.
- DO NOT DELETE any assignments unless they were reported wrong from the beginning of the year. You can put a Completion Date to an assignment and if needed add a new assignment.
