Applicants Eligible for this Grant: State governments
Additional Information on Eligibility: The Governor or another chief elected official must provide a commitment letter demonstrating the State's commitment to this grant effort. The letter must:Designate the State agency to be the recipient of the award (e.g., State Workforce Agency eligible for funding under Title I of WIOA, State Educational Agency, or an SAA). For states with federally recognized SAAs and where the SAA is not the State agency that will be the grant recipient, the SAA must be included as a partner. For states that do not have a federally recognized SAA, the State must commit to work in partnership with the federal Office of Apprenticeship within the State.Describe specifically how the Governor or chief elected official plans to support the expansion of quality and innovative RAPs being developed or expanded.Applications that do not include this letter with their application will be considered incomplete and will not move forward through the merit review process. If more than one application is received from a State, the one including the designation from the Governor (or chief elected official) will be considered the eligible entity. If more than one application is received from a State and no Governor's letter (or letter from the chief elected official) is included with each application, or more than one application is received from a State and a Governor's letter is included with each application, ETA, in consultation with the Governor (or chief elected official), will make the determination of which agency will receive the award. If we receive multiple applications from the same State agency, we will only consider the most recently received application that meets the deadline. No more than one award per State will be executed.This letter from the Governor must be submitted as an attachment and clearly labeled as “Governor's Letter.” If the applicant does not submit the letter, the application will be considered incomplete and non-responsive, and it will not move forward through the merit review process. This Letter is only required for states as defined in III.A. Please place under Required Attachments and add a heading called, “A letter from the governor or chief elected official.”Letters sent separate from the application will not be considered.
