ETP Staff Contacts MEC List (California Community College ETP Contacts) ETP's Frequently Asked Questions
About the Employment Training Panel (ETP)

What are the goals of the ETP?

ETP's goals are to support job creation and retention, through training. ETP is funded by a special tax on California employers and differs from other workforce development organizations whose emphasis is on pre-employment training. ETP fulfills its mission by reimbursing the cost of employer-driven training for incumbent workers and funding the type of training needed by unemployed workers to re-enter the workforce. Overall, the ETP program helps to ensure that California businesses will have the skilled workers they need to remain competitive.

How is the ETP Funded?

ETP has historically accomplished its mission without appropriations from the State General Fund or alternative sources of funding. The core ETP program is funded by a special Employment Training Tax (ETT) paid by California employers, and only employers subject to this tax directly benefit from the program. In the last few years, however, ETP has received additional funding for alternative programs. The additional funding is provided principally through distributions from the Employment Development Department and the California Energy Commission (CEC). ETP anticipates ongoing commitments for additional funding. Learn more.

Who can participate in the ETP program?

Under its core program, ETP can only fund training for employers that are subject to paying the Employment Training Tax. The core-funded ETP Program is supported by this tax. Eligible entities include:

Single Employers subject to the Unemployment Insurance tax and having a California Employer Account Number (CEAN) with a prefix of 699 or lower;

Groups of Employers, including Chambers of Commerce, Joint Apprenticeship Training Committees, Trade Associations or Economic Development Corporations;

Training Agencies which include the following educational institutions:

Community College or Community College District

University or University foundations

Adult School

Regional Occupational Program

Private training agency with at least a two-year history of providing training and placement services to the public, and appropriate certification;

Workforce Development Boards (WDB) (formerly Workforce Investment Boards) with the approval of appropriate local elected officials in the local workforce investment areas;

Workforce Investment Act (WIA) Grant Recipients or WIA Administrative Entities selected pursuant to the federal Workforce Investment Act of 1998, with the approval of the local Workforce Development Board and the appropriate local elected officials.

Review ETP eligible entities for additional requirements.

What types of trainees?

Noncredit Education

Noncredit instruction includes an array of no-cost courses that help students reach their personal, academic and professional goals.Ten noncredit categories are established to classify a noncredit course in accordance with its primary objective. The categories of noncredit courses are eligible for state apportionment in accordance with California education Code sections 84757(a) and 84760.5 and California Code Regulations title 5, section 58160.

Career Development and College Preparation (CDCP)

The enactment of the Community College Funding Legislation (Senate Bill 361, Scott 2006) established the Career Development and the College Preparation (CDCP) program. Certificates are offered in several areas of study. Colleges may offer noncredit programs of two or more courses to prepare students for employment or to be successful in college-level credit coursework.

California Education Code sections 84750.5 (uniform rate per FTES), 84760.5 (CDCP categories), and provisions of the California Code Regulations title 5, section 55151, et sec describe policy governing the establishment of Career Development and College Preparation program offerings.

Noncredit courses offered in the four distinct categories (instructional domains) of English as a Second Language (ESL), Elementary and Secondary Basic Skills, Short-term Vocational, and Workforce Preparation are eligible for "enhanced funding" when sequenced to lead to a Chancellor's Office approved certificate of completion, or certificate of competency, in accordance with the provisions of the California Education Code governing Career Development and College Preparation (CDCP) programs.

1. Subdivision (e) of Education Code section 84760.5 requires the Chancellor's Office to submit an annual report to the California Department of Finance and the Legislature on or before July 1st. The report details the following:
The amount of full-time equivalent students claimed by each community college district for Career Development and College Preparation courses and
classes; and

2. The specific certificate programs and course titles of Career Development and College Preparation courses and classes receiving additional funding pursuant to section 84760.5, as well as the number of those courses and classes receiving additional funding.

Annual reports are accessible by clicking here: Annual CDCP Reporting

Adult High School Diploma Program (AHSD)

Colleges may offer a High School Diploma Program, as described in California Code of Regulations, title 5, section 55154. The Adult High School Diploma Conveys the same status as completion of a K-12 diploma.

Community Services Offerings (fee based not-for-credit courses that do not generate state apportionment)

Many colleges also provide Community Services Offerings (often referred to as fee-based classes or Community Education) based on community needs. These offerings cover a wide variety of affordable not-for-credit learning opportunities, such as classes, workshops, seminars, and excursions for personal and professional enrichment. Community Services programs are self-supporting at the local level, and are open to all members of the community willing to pay a minimum fee. Chancellor's Office approval is not required for Community Services Offerings. California Education Code section 78300 and California of Regulations title 5, section 550002(d) describe and govern Community Services Offering policy.
