NOTICE!
The Technology Access Fee (TAF) proposal process for the 2009-2010 fiscal year has ended. The Instructional Technology Committee has completed their review of projects to recommend to the President. To review projects recommended, search in the below TAF database by typing recommended in the approved field and click on start search. Funds will be available July 1, 2009.
TAF PROCESS
TAF funds are required to be spent in the year collected. Projects are approved by line items, not by dollars. Because projects are not allocated dollars, any savings through the purchase process are collected in the overall TAF accounts and used to balance the TAF accounts at the end of the year. Purchases requested past March may not receive funding. The allocation process used by the committee may be accessed here.
