				support services or administrative area in a non-traditional manner or where

				is encouraged to collaborate with the WVDE during the initial planning stage.

				comply with the guidelines adopted by the WVDE.
17.2. Evaluation Options. An EPP operating
				approved programs of study may seek approval for a waiver from component
				requirements and/or procedures in current policy for evaluation purposes to

				candidates who perform as effectively as candidates who have been prepared
				according to the component requirements in current policy. Such request must be
				in writing and submitted to the EPPRB.
17.3. Proposal and Reporting Guidelines. An
				EPP that seeks approval to offer a pilot program or a waiver of current policy
				must submit the proposal using sound research methodology by clearly indicating
				the objective of the project, the persons and agencies involved, the duration
				of the project, the assessment procedures and timeline, and the project
				coordinator. The EPP must also agree to prepare and submit a summary of its
				findings to the EPPRB, the WVCPTS, and the WVDE.
17.4. Validity Period of Experimental
				Program. The experimental pilot program may operate for a maximum of five
				years. The EPP must present required program data to the WVDE/EPPRB within
