SUBJECT / RECOMMENDATIONS | |
Approve Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Cornerstone Solutions, Inc. (CSI) | |
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY | |
The purpose of this MOU is to delineate the responsibilities of CSI and Hillsborough County Public Schools (HCPS) in a coordinated effort to provide postsecondary vocational training opportunities through Hillsborough Technical Colleges (HTC) to students exiting the CSI-Job Corps program. CSI will identify the students and refer them to HTC prior to separation from the CSI-Job Corps program.
HCPS will provide technical college awareness sessions to local CSI-Job Corps students that include information on federal and state financial aid opportunities and scholarships. The impetus for this partnership is to promote career training opportunities at our technical colleges and to assist students exiting the CSI-Job Corps program to continue their education. |

FINANCIAL IMPACT (Budgeted: No) | |

EVALUATION | |
The success of this instructional program will be evaluated based on an annual review of the number of students enrolled in the technical colleges after exiting CSI-Job Corps. | |
