                - In addition, community colleges must include the participation of their workforce or career services offices to assist with career placement services and developmental academic coursework for program participants. This may include working through their Workforce Development and Continuing Education divisions or other offices, as appropriate.
                - Grantees must monitor the rates of student enrollment and completion, as well as placement in paid work experiences.
                - A grant under this competition must have in place the necessary processes and systems to comply with the reporting requirements in 2 CFR part 170 should you receive funding under the competition.  This does not apply if you have an exception under 2 CFR 170.110(b).
                - At the end of the project period, grantees must submit a Final Performance Report, including financial information, as directed by the Secretary.
