======= ===============
Recommendation:
Authorize the Interim City Manager to sign the contract with Imperial Valley College Work-Study Program.
Background:
The IVC Work-Study program partners with non-profit agencies such as the City of Calexico to provide work to students who are eligible to participate. Students perform work that is in the public interest. The City of Calexico has partnered with this program for the last 31 years.
Participants are afforded training in areas such as general office work, library activities, adult literacy, traffic control and recreation activities. Participants must be supervised at all times by a full-time city employee and will not be replacing former employees as work assigned is additional activities generated during the year.
The IVC Work-Study program pays 65% of the participant's salary. The city is responsible for the balance of 35%. City departments regularly include funding for this program.
Discussion & Analysis:
The City of Calexico, throughout the years, has used the services of training agencies. The partnership allows the trainee to learn skills that will contribute to the trainee's transition to employments opportunities in the public or private sector. This training agreement must be renewed annually. The agreement with IVC is for a one-year period ending June 30, 2023 AGENDA

Guidelines on Interview Questions
We would like to express our gratitude to you for your participation in the IVC Work-Study Program. We appreciate your efforts and contributions which help our students to become successful and we look forward to working with you this coming year.
Please read the Supervisor Handbook carefully. Failure to comply with the guidelines provided in the Handbook, such as failure to submit completed timesheets via webtime, could result in departmental reassigning of student employees. Failure to meet timesheet deadlines creates accounting exceptions that impede reconciliation of federal funding.

Please consult with the Work-Study Coordinators regarding the maximum number of positions available to your department. Please note that due to the continued increases in minimum wage, the number of positions assigned have been reduced slightly for most departments.
