Remove or Deny Approved Programs

Removals

The flow in ProviderLink is designed for local areas to monitor eligibility dates and expirations and remove programs if eligibility has expired, and then for the state administrator to remove the program. Approved programs must be removed by the local area when eligibility expires and no application for subsequent eligibility has been received.

Denials

Approved programs are denied only if the program does not comply with the training provider assurances. This is highly unlikely, but possible. The navigation for denying a program is the same as for removing a program.

To monitor eligibility, go to the Approved Initial Programs and Approved Subsequent Programs queues. View the S/A Date (State Approval Date). If the eligibility has expired, contact the local area to remove or take action to re-approve the program.

Remove Expired Approved Program

The following example is for Approved Initial Programs. The navigation for Approved Subsequent Programs is the same.

  1. On the Approval Menu, click Approved Programs. The Approved Initial Programs page displays.
  2. Click a link in the Program Name column. The Program Description page displays. Review the information. Click Save/Return. The Program Performance page displays.
  3. Review the information on the Program Performance page, if needed. Click Save/Continue. The Local Area Status Review page displays.
    • To return without removing or denying the program, click Return to List. The program will remain in the Approved Initial Programs queue.
  4. The Local Area Status Review page has two sections: Local WIB/Administrative Entity (display only) and Local Review. Complete this page as described in Approve or Deny Pending Programs, except select Remove in the Status field.
    •  Programs display in the Eligibility Expiration Notifications queue forty-five days before eligibility expires. Eligibility expiration is determined by the state approval date.

Deny Approved Program

If the provider is not in compliance with the assurances, and you need to remove all programs and the provider, request that the state administrator deny the provider. Denying the provider will set all programs to non-WIOA status.

The following example is for Approved Initial Programs. The navigation for Approved Subsequent Programs is the same.

  1. On the Approval Menu, click Approved Initial Programs. The Approved Initial Programs page displays.
  2. Click the Review button for the program. The Program Description page displays. Review the information and click Save. The Program Performance page displays.
    • Performance may not be required for initial eligibility.
    • Performance may not be required for subsequent eligibility depending on state policy and procedure.
  3. Review the information on the Program Performance page and click Finish. The Local Area Status Review page displays.
  4. Complete this page as described in Pending Programs, except select Deny under State Approval Status.
