Narrative
NOCCCD will continue to be the fiscal agent for NOCRC, managing all CAEP funds and ensuring compliance with budgetary and programmatic requirements. NOCRC's Advisory groups will continue vetting CAEP activities aligned with the NOCRC annual plan and CAEP outcomes. The NOCRC Executive Committee will continue to be responsible for the final approval of the CAEP activities and budgets. Both funded and non-funded members understand the importance of carrying over 20 % of CAEP funds to abide by AB 1491. While there is no carryover limit for the individual consortium service-providing members, the consortium as a whole is committed to keeping its annual carryover amount at or under the 20% threshold by practicing the established procedure of redistribution of the carryover funds to other members. CAEP activities will continue to be funded based on CAEP outcomes and student needs, using a regional collaborative process.
