Approved without a new purchase order.

By the agencies that participate in it, and only after your district has paid. In order: your schools approve the hours; you receive one consolidated invoice at the bill rates your office approved and pay it; we remit each participating agency its share out of that payment; and the participation fee is deducted from that remittance. So the program is funded on the agency’s side of the invoice, out of what the agency billed — never added to a rate your district approved, never billed to the district, and never deducted from anybody before your payment has been collected. What each agency agrees to is a term of the participation agreement it signs with us; it is not a district term, and it cannot change what your district owes. The sequence is laid out step by step on what it costs your district.

Three things from you: your agency list, your rate ceilings, and the document types you require before someone works in a building. Most districts are posting within a week. Your agencies do their own setup — we onboard each one directly, and none of that work lands on your staff.

You send us four things first: the roles you fill through agencies, the agencies you use, the documents you require before anyone starts, and who approves candidates and hours. We build the workspace from that, so your team reviews instead of builds. Then one onboarding call of about an hour confirms it, along with your ceiling rates. In week one we onboard the agencies you named — outreach and a participation agreement with each — and your first opening usually goes out in week two, to whichever agencies have signed by then. There is no purchase order, nothing to install and no data migration.

Your agencies were always yours: you keep the ones you use, add or drop any of them at any time, and your data leaves with you. The agreement puts every commercial term on the page before you sign it.
