Wow, it is hard to believe we are already looking at the RMTS training schedule for 2023 FFY, but here we are.  As you may know, each district is responsible to designate two RMTS Program Contacts that are district employees. These two RMTS contacts are required to attend annual RMTS Program Contact Training.  It is crucial for the success of the program that RMTS Program Contacts understand their role, the purpose of the time studies, the appropriate completion of the RMTS, and the timeframes and deadlines for participation.

RMTS training is required before the RMTS contacts can access the October – December 2022 Participant List (PL). Failure to meet attendance requirements will result in non-compliance. ISDs not in compliance will be excluded from receiving payments for SHARS services for the entire FFY.  Furthermore, ISDs not in compliance will be excluded from submitting a MAC claim for any quarter in which compliance is not achieved.

As a reminder, persons who have never attended “initial” training are not eligible to attend “refresher” training and must attend the “initial” training. However, those who have attended training may attend a refresher or initial training.
