Out-of-State Training Vendor Justification (Posted: 2/27/24)

Applicants/Contractors requesting to use an “Out-of-State” Training Vendor/Subcontractor must provide Justification for the ETP Panel to Approve/Deny. 

An Out-of-State Vendor is defined in ETP Regulation 4421.  The Panel may authorize reimbursement for the cost of services provided by an out-of-state vendor which does not have a California office and employees only if the Panel finds that such services are unique to the need of the employer or contractor and unavailable in California. This applies to ALL contract types and must be presented at a Panel Meeting. For alternative funded projects, please refer to the guidelines for each alternative program. 

This was presented at the August, 2023 Policy Committee meeting, where it was decided that ETP would adhere to Regulation 22 CCR 4421. 

Effective: January 1, 2024
