About Federal Compliance/OCR
Nevada recipients and sub-recipients of The Strengthening Career and Technical Education for the 21st Century Act (Perkins V) financial assistance from the U.S. Department of Education is bound by federally mandated and regulated statutes to follow civil rights Methods of Administration (MOA) requirements in vocational programs.
Career and Technical Education (CTE) at the Nevada Department of Education (NDE), will provide comprehensive program reviews as well as technical assistance to these recipients and sub-recipients with meeting the basic expectations set forth by the U.S. Department of Education for MOA.
CTE at NDE works closely with the US Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights (OCR) on civil rights compliance issues impacting educational entities within the state of Nevada related to MOA. For further information refer to the MOA Plan in response to the 2020 Memorandum of Procedures.
