This resource is intended to outline the steps to complete the General Supervision System Grant (GSSG) Application activity in Catamaran.
The GSSG Application is due to the Michigan Department of Education (MDE) by August 1, 2022.
Before completing the application, the ISD may wish to review the application form in Catamaran along with additional resources such as Timelines and Allowable Cost documents available on the Catamaran Technical Assistance Website.
Additionally, the ISD may also visit NexSys to access other GSSG fiscal-related materials, such as budget details.
MDE will review all applications. If any concerns are identified, MDE will return the application to the ISD. ISDs should check the MDE comment box on the application’s Getting Started page for MDE’s comments and additional information. MDE requests that ISDs resubmit any returned applications within one week from the modification request notification date.
Note: If the ISD receives a page error while submitting the application, this means that one or more questions was not completed. Follow the instructions in the page error to complete the question(s) as needed.
Upon submission of the grant by the due date in Catamaran, and an initial review of the submitted budget and current credential(s) recognized by MDE in NexSys, the OSE will release the initial 50 percent of grant funds.
Once the GSSG Application has been reviewed and is at the MDE Accepted stage, the MDE Accepted application summary will be uploaded from Catamaran to NexSys on behalf of the ISD and the OSE will approve the final 50 percent funding.
