Iowa Admin. Code r. 281-82.9 - Approval of program changes and flexibility of programs
Upon application by an organization, the director may approve minor additions to or changes within the organization's approved SAM program. When an organization proposes a revision that exceeds the primary scope of the organization's program, the revision becomes operative only after approval by the state board. Districts may have a variety of programs and job descriptions that meet the standards of a SAM system but must receive permission to make changes to those programs in the manner prescribed. The department will seek maximum flexibility in systems allowed to meet the goals of this program. Essential components of any approved SAM program include readiness, data collection of administrator time, ongoing training of the program administrator, use of time-tracking software and ongoing coaching for participants in the program.
