Cost-Sharing Assurances

for:
 
 
 
 
 

Applicant

........................................................................................................................................................................









As part of the arrangement which provides federal funding to help educators take part in this overseas professional development project, a degree of cost-sharing by participant's institutions is expected. Part of the ECHO selection process, therefore, relates to each applicant's assurance that local support has been committed.
 
 

Minimally, the applicant's school or agency must:

Provide any released time days that might be necessary just before the start of the school year. (Project participants may not be returning from abroad until mid-August.)
 
 

Provide facilities and incidental financial support for local ECHO-related in-service presentations and/or workshops that the participant may wish to conduct during the 1999-2000 school year.
 
 

Provide supplementary books, materials, and other instructional items which may be required as the application works to integrate ECHO-related activities in his or her instruction.
 
 

Provide appropriate computer and Internet access for participant's ECHO-related webguide development and implementation.
 
 

Additional forms of cost-sharing--- e.g., tuition reimbursements, project participation fee, domestic travel expenses, etc.--- are also encouraged.

........................................................................................................................................................................
 
 

We agree to the principle of cost-sharing and will contribute to our applicant's participation in the ECHO project as follows:
