Mid-Year
Weatherization Policy Update set for January 20
Service
Providers are invited to attend the Mid-Year Weatherization Policy Update on
January 20 from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. at Coyote Moon in St. Cloud. Attendees from
each agency are limited to three staff members. We ask that WAP
Coordinators attend, along with a lead auditor or QCI and up to one additional
staff member. Topics covered will include updates to the Weatherization Policy
Manual, Allowable Measures Chart, and Forms, along with the WA 8.10 update and
the Minnesota Fuel Switch Policy and Procedure. We will also provide follow-up
information in response to questions raised at the November Auditor/QCI
Feedback Session.
Note:
MWAG will be held the morning of January 21 to facilitate ease of travel for
those attending both the Mid-Year Weatherization Policy Update and MWAG
meeting.
HEP
Crew Leader Trainings
Two
sessions of the BPI HEP Crew Leader Training will be offered January 11-15 and
February 1-5 at Fond du Lac Tribal and Community College in Cloquet, Minn.
Crews from crew-based programs will be given priority to attend this training.
Registration information will be sent directly to these agencies. Crew-based
programs are strongly encouraged to send their Crew Leaders and Technicians to
this training. After crews from crew-based programs have been
accommodated, any remaining spaces will be made available for other agencies to
offer to their weatherization contractors.
Coming
soon! WA 8.10 Instructions
Commerce
has developed a PowerPoint presentation along with written instructions for the
new WA 8.10 upgrade. The PowerPoint presentation will be emailed to all Service
Providers in the near future. These instructions will be incorporated into the
WA User’s Manual Addendum (Appendix C) for the Mid-Year Policy Update.
Happy
Holidays!
From
the entire weatherization team here at Commerce, we wish you a warm and
wonderful holiday season. Thank you for the work you do to provide low-income
Minnesotans with high quality weatherization services. See you in the New
Year!
