In Texas, approved providers must reapply every two years. For example, providers who applied by March 15, 2008, and were approved for the July 15, 2008, provider effective date are approved for July 15, 2008 though July 15, 2010. These providers will need to reapply by March 15, 2010, to be eligible to become an approved provider July 15, 2010- July 14, 2012.

For the 2008-2009 GeorgiaSES applications, there's a few upcoming milestones that will soon be upon us. We've listed the key deadlines below.

• January 1st 2008 to February 15th 2008 - Application Period.
• January 8th & 17th - Technical Assistance Workshops
• Friday February 15th 2008, 4pm EST - Submission Deadline for Applications.

Once approved by the GA SBOE, SES providers will be included on the Providers’ List for a period of three years.

The current oaSES product has been a great success during the 2007-2008 academic year and we've been working on the updated 2008-2009 product for some time. Look for great new features, faster operation and more flexibility to match your tutoring setup.

As the deadline for the FL RFA approaches we thought we'd highlight some areas that the oaSES system addresses for the upcoming academic year. From "Contact Information Website" (Q 4.1) through to "Background Checks" (Q 5.5.6), the oaSES system can help with many aspects of your application.
