Your organization has been identified as one that likely includes interested individuals. We encourage you to forward this invitation to your membership.
ETA invites interested individuals to participate in either of the TAACCCT Grant Program public comment sessions, scheduled for:
· Tuesday, October 4, 2011 3:00-4:00pm EDT
· Thursday, October 6, 2011 3:00-4:00pm EDT
To join the public comment session, please use the following link to access the session you are attending: http://www.dol.gov/dol/chat.htm. Note that this link is for both sessions.
A transcript of the listening sessions will be available to the public at www.doleta.gov/TAACCCT after October 12, 2011.
The TAACCCT program is designed to meet industry needs while accelerating individual learning and improving college retention and achievement rates. The overall goal is to increase industry-recognized credential or degree completion rates of participants. Projects were encouraged to use online or technology-enabled learning to achieve these objectives. DOL is implementing the TAACCCT program in partnership with the Department of Education.
