Goals of SCSEP Upgrade job skills and work experience through hands–on experience at the host agency.

Paid training while preparing and seeking a job.

The ultimate goal is to find and keep a job!

Qualifications for SCSEP Age 55 or older. Must be Unemployed at time of application and enrollment.

Duration of Program Participation (Length of time in SCSEP) Depends on your individual employment Plan (IEP).

May be exited for cause for failure to comply with IEP.

July 1, 2007, Federal Guidelines set a grantee time limit of participation to an average of 27 months; individual time limit for participants is a maximum of 48 months life-time with any grantee.

Therefore, beginning June 30, 2011, participants who have been enrolled for 48-months and have not found a job will be exited due to durational limits.

SER SCSEP National Grant ONLY- Current policy [expiring July 1, 2014): allows a one-time 12-month waiver extension of anyone with a waiver of durational limit factors: age 75 or older, frail, severely disabled, old enough for but not receiving social security title II, severely limited employment prospects who lives in area of persistent unemployment, limited English or low literacy. Any participant with a waiver factor, whose 48-month durational limit date is 6/30/2014 or prior, have never been granted a waiver, and provides documentation by their durational limit date will be granted the one-year extension. Effective July 1, 2014, SER National will implement a 48 month individual durational limit policy with no waivers permitted. SER SCSEP will no longer be authorized to grant any waiver extensions.

The Colorado State SCSEP Grant has a DOL approved 48 month individual durational limit policy with no waivers permitted. (Includes Trinidad area & the Denver area of CO State grant)

Employment – Ultimate Goal of the Program! When you find a job,

o You must report to your case manager. o You will be exited from the program as having obtained unsubsidized employment and o Your last day in SCSEP will normally be the day before you start your new job.

Regularly working (part-time or full-time, no matter how little), while enrolled in SCSEP is not permitted.

Any employment counts as unsubsidized employment; full-time, part-time, temporary or self-employment. Participation in VISTA, the Foster Grandparent Program, the Senior Companion Program, the Senior

Demonstration Programs, and the Retired Senior Volunteer Program are not considered employment.

SER SCSEP is funded by the U.S. Department of Labor and focuses on the needs of mature workers, the community and employers. SER SCSEP pre-
