Subject

Change 1 to Training and Employment Guidance Letter (TEGL) 1-17, Dislocated Worker Opportunity Grants

Purpose

To correct the timeframe during which the funds will be available for expenditure, which was provided in the last paragraph of Section 6, at the bottom of page 4. The TEGL incorrectly states that the period of expenditure is June 30, 2017 through September 30, 2019. The paragraph should read as follows:

"The period of performance for DW Opportunity Grants is two years, and grant funds will be available for expenditure from October 1, 2017 through September 30, 2019. However, the Department reserves the right to provide period of performance extensions beyond this date, as it deems appropriate and necessary, to achieve the purposes of these awards."
