Federal Programs Monitoring
The DDOE, in the role as a pass-through grant entity, must monitor the activities of the sub-recipient as necessary to ensure they use federal funds for authorized purposes, comply with federal requirements, and achieve performance goals. Monitoring activities, at a minimum, may include training and technical assistance, desk audits, online systems, on-site reviews, or other agreed-upon means.
The Delaware DOE is currently utilizing the Monitoring Tool within eGrants to engage in compliance monitoring for several Federal Title Programs including Title I, Title II, Title III, Title IV, and ESSER I-III. The Monitoring Tool allows DDOE Program Managers to easily monitor districts and charter schools to ensure and document compliance with Federal and state regulations. The online system collects all monitoring related documents in one place with historical archives for easy future access. The submission and review process includes a flexible workflow to clearly capture submission and review milestones. DOE can be more transparent with requirements and can focus their efforts assessing the quality of responses and target assistance where needed. Online comments allow for easy feedback and consultation.
