CAEP Reminder: 17-18 Close Out Certification in NOVA – Due March 31, 2020
Circle with word Deliverables appearing in three places
As part of the Q2 expenditure reporting in NOVA, the State will close out 17-18 funding. All members will certify that their 17-18 CAEP funds have been spent and there is no remaining balance. If there is a remaining fund balance of 17-18 funds, NOVA will generate an invoice to return funds to the State General Fund.

To help with this effort, TAP will host a webinar on March 6, 2020 to review the close out process, discuss COLAs for 20-21, how to process your CFAD, and more. Register for the webinar.
