Benchmark 3 Funds will be increased to 100% of the total award if the Service Provider has submitted by June 2, 2000, appropriate eligibility documentation, which has been accepted by TEC, for at least 90% of the total participants funded.

All participants in the 2000 SYETP are expected to produce portfolios demonstrating the acquisition of competencies and their experiences and accomplishments in the program. These portfolios are to be developed individually and may also be developed, where appropriate, as a team. The portfolios are designed to enable the participants to produce a work product that they can take with them to provide to future employers as documentation of the types and levels of skills they have been able to demonstrate as a result of their participation in the 2000 SYETP. Portfolios developed by participants assigned to an industry focus center must be submitted to the Service Provider for review by the TEC before being returned to the participants. 6.

Work Experience: Work Experience is an activity that provide youth with a closely supervised work assignment at a worksite in the public or private non-profit sector, specially selected because of the quality of the supervised work assignments made available to participating youth. The objective of the assignment is to enable youth to carry out work assignments in an environment where they will acquire good work habits, learn what employers expect of employees, learn how supervisors hold their workers to these expectations, learn how to interact with worksite supervisors who communicate these expectations to them and provide them with periodic feedback on their performance, and learn how to interact with co-workers in productive ways that maximize performance at the worksite. In addition, all participants in work experience designs are expected to master the required competencies in Pre-Employment Skills (PES) and Work Maturity (WM). The PES mastery requires attending approximately 20 hours of PES instruction. On a case-by-case basis, this can be waived if the participant has already mastered PES competencies in a previous SYETP and this can be documented. 2. Projects: Projects are the design label used to refer to a number of different types of active learning experiences that may include community service projects or classroom settings that simulate other real-life/real-work experiences. These are to provide hands-on learning in the context of carrying out interesting tasks that thoroughly engage the participant. 3. Industry-Focus Activities: Industry Focus Centers provide hands-on learning activities oriented toward specific targeted industries, selected by participating young people from an array of industry choices, and offered by an array of potential centers to which the students could be vouchered, with students choosing among options based on how excited they are by the description each center provides of the activities planned for the summer program. 4. Service Provider Function: Service Providers will do all the work involved in recruiting participants, working with them to prepare intake/eligibility paperwork, submitting all paperwork for record-keeping and data gathering functions, managing all activities pertaining to getting the participants to the centers and tracking their time and attendance while they are there, handling all paperwork functions related to the participant payroll and participants' checks, assisting the instructions in the classroom when requested and managing all behavioral counseling, meeting all paperwork requirements related to the participant's participation in the program, especially the submission of participants' portfolios to the TEC for review, and accompanying participants and instructions on all field trips arranged for by the industry center personnel. 2000 SYETP WORKST A TEMENT Page 5 ~ SERVICE PROVIDER: I I I MONROE COUNTY I I I I I I ,STAY IN SCHOOL iNON STAY IN SCHOOL TOTAL I SLOTS: (SUMMER) NUMBER OF SLOTS I I 92 I 92 I WORK EXPERIENCE PROJECTS I " IND.
