*Abstract:*                     The Office of Indian Education Professional Development (OIE PD) Grants program wishes to implement (1) A Semi-Annual Participant Report (SAPR), (2) a Participant Follow-Up Protocol, and (3) an Employment Verification survey. OIE PD grantees will submit participant contact and project service information on the SAPR twice a year. The OIE PD Grants program staff will use the Participant Follow-Up Protocol to collect employment and continuing education information from IE PD participants who are not in an approved and active deferment once they have exited the program. IE PD participants will initiate contact with IE PD staff within 6 months of exiting the PD program and every 6 months thereafter for the length of their service payback period to report their employment and continuing education information. IE PD participants working in a local educational agency enrolling 5 percent or more of American Indian/Alaska Native students will give the Employment Verification form to their principal or LEA representative to complete. The OIE PD grants program participants will submit employment verification forms to employers, starting upon employment and continuing every 6 months thereafter. The information collected through the SAPR, the Participant Follow-Up Protocol, and the Employment Verification Form is necessary to (1) Assess the performance of the IE PD program on its Government Performance Results Act (GPRA) measures, (2) determine if IE PD participants are fulfilling the terms of their service payback requirements, and (3) provide project-monitoring and compliance information to IE PD Grants program staff.
