2. Annual Reporting
The CAMI grant is a US Department of Labor (USDOL) Trade Adjustment Assistance Community College and Career Training (TAACCCT) grant. Most of our reporting is done at the end of each quarter, which you are all familiar with; however, USDOL requires that all TAACCCT grantees also complete an additional, annual report, which will accompany the regular quarterly report (it is due on the same day as the quarterly report each October). The annual report is almost exclusively statistical, which is very different from our quarterly reports.

4. What does the annual report look like?
There are three parts to the annual report:
participant outcomes,
participant summary information and
program narrative.
The next three slides will outline each piece of data we need for the report. Much of this information can be found on the CAMI Participant Form.

8. Definitions
Unique Participant – You can only count someone once, even if they were involved in more than one activity during the year
Short-Term Certificate – A third-semester certificate and the MCC two 8-week certificate
Long-Term Certificate – The 2-semester Advanced Manufacturing certificate and the TRCC Precision Sheet Metal certificate
Completer – Someone who was a participant that finished a short-term certificate, long-term certificate or associate’s degree
Incumbent Worker – Someone who is employed at the time they became a participant
Credentials – A short-term certificate, long-term certificate or associate’s degree
Credit Hours – Include the total number of credits (most classes award between credits) each participate completes. This does not include noncredit coursework.

9. Reporting Templates
An annual report template will be made available to each college at the time you receive this module. You will receive the template as an additional tab in your quarterly report Excel file called “annual report”. This will be the last tab in the file.

10. Training
The most challenging and critical piece to the annual report is the use of shared definitions. We need to make sure that we are all counting the same thing in the same way. Subsequently, we will be offering a mandatory, face-to-face training session for all college Educational Assistants who are involved in reporting data. Training will be offered on Tuesday, September 29th from 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM at 61 Woodland Street in Hartford in Conference Room # 305. Remember to have ID for Security.
