Federal Monitor - About Federal Monitor

Federal Monitor - State Education Agency version

Woman with laptop State Educational Agencies are charged with monitoring their individual school districts' compliance with the "No Child Left Behind" act as well as any number of grants for which the state receives funding from the federal government. Each state determines appropriate metrics to determine if schools are meeting federal requirements (e.g., instructional, fiduciary, accountability). Capturing the data appropriate to each of those metrics can be problematic, between developing the data capture instrument(s), performing on site monitorings to validate captured results, and the process of creating corrective action documents and ongoing monitoring of process improvements.

As a state agency charged with tracking compliance of school districts statewide, you daily face the challenges of extensive paperwork that is mailed back and forth, entered and extracted from databases and spreadsheets, printed, copied, faxed, collated, lost and resent. It's a logistical nightmare.

Contrast that with a web-enabled workflow, using common web browsers and e-mail notifications to manage every step of the process. Using an application service provider model, you don't need to worry about managing yet another IT resource, securing staff, servers, and time to solve logistical and technology issues. After all, isn't your time better spent managing and solving problems, not processes?

You determine the metrics to capture. Based on your data-capture instruments, Leader Services develops a customized solution. Federal Monitor is a secure, web-centric data-capture, reporting, and management tool modeled around the specific needs of your state.

With Federal Monitor, schools complete a self-assessment online. State monitors review the submitted data prior to conducting on site reviews or other face-to-face activities as needed. Comments, corrective actions, and commendations are input online, immediately available for review by the school district. State users can monitor corrective actions from initial input through implementation, so you can track the timeline to completion.

Leader brings its expertise for compliance monitoring for special education to the needs of federal programs with Federal Monitor. Please take a few moments to review an overview of the state process flow and contact Leader to set up an account to view the online demo version.

And make monitoring of federal programs easier for your state.
