The Processing Unit assists the Local Education Agencies (LEA) and entities in all their fiscal grant related processes. While providing the comfort of meeting fiscal needs, the Grants Processing Unit ensures the LEA’s and entity’s success! Processing can be counted on to complete claims, reimbursements, and completion reports in a timely fashion. Although processing is not a new unit, it is a growing unit indeed; as the team grows, as does the quality of the fiscal technical assistance provided to the LEAs and entities.
The Arizona Department of Education (ADE) serves as the pass-through entity and fiscal/cognizant agency for several different grants. The Grants Management Fiscal Monitoring Unit is charged with performing periodic fiscal reviews for all education agencies within the State of Arizona that receive grant awards passed through ADE.
The Grants Management Technology Unit supports the Grants Management Enterprise (GME) system by continually evolving and improving system functionality to ensure that all federal, state and other grant funding requirements are being met.
The team provides support while developing and maintaining all applications and processes housed in the GME system.
