The training grant was approved 11/1/2009 but the change was not made in the appropriate calendar year. The annualized amount approved on the training grant is $10,000. $416.67 ($10,000/24) will be moved each pay period from 11/1/09 – 12/31/09 to the training grant ($1666.68) from the current funding source. No change in position status or earnings type is required/permitted. If the Eform is processed on a wage pernr, fringe may be charged to the training grant.
