Membership Renewals for TRiO SSS
Hello! Could someone please provide guidance on which Code of Federal Regulations section covers allowable costs for memberships such as COE and NAEOP? When I submit a purchase request, I like to include a direct CFR citation that supports the expense. For this particular situation, the only citation that seems somewhat relevant is 34 CFR 646.30(c) regarding in‑service training of project staff, but I’m not sure this is the correct one to use. Any clarification would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance!

Blumen - Ipads Needed?
Hey - we are starting our database migration to Blumen and are looking forward to streamlining our logging contacts process - will purchasing iPads be helpful for this process with the Blumen software? or Would that process be easy enough on a staff laptop?

Hello - logging services provided (documentation) in Blumen is easy to do via staff laptops. Still, you can do it on iPads and even on your iPhone (too small for me!) via the Blumen App, which you can download. You can also use the iPads to have students sign in electronically (verification) via the BOLT feature in Blumen. Feel free to let me know if you have any more questions about migrating to Blumen.
