Okla. Admin. Code § 340:105-12-22

Current through Vol. 42, No. 7, December 16, 2024

Section 340:105-12-22 - Durational limits

(a)Average project duration. An average project duration of 27 months or less is maintained, unless Educational Training Administration (ETA) approves an extension to 36 months.

(b)Individual durational limits. Unless otherwise notified by the United States Department of Labor, participants are allowed to participate in the program for no longer than 48 consecutive or inconsecutive months, unless approved policy allows for an extension and the participant meets extension criteria.

(1) The individual durational limit of 48 months does not automatically entitle participants to remain in the program for the entire 48 months.

(2) Participants are notified of policy pertaining to the maximum duration requirement, including the possibility of an extension if applicable, at the time of enrollment and each year thereafter, and whenever ETA has approved a change of policy.

(3) Participants are terminated when reaching the 48-month durational limit and are provided a written 30-day notice prior to the program exit.

(4) Eligibility and other programmatic considerations, such as the participant's Individual Employment Program, are taken into account.

(5) Approved leave of absence does not count toward the aggregate limits for the average project durational limit, nor the individual durational limit. Participants do not receive pay during approved breaks.
