ACTION:

Correction; Notice inviting applications for new awards for fiscal year (FY) 2011.

SUMMARY:

On April 13, 2011, we published in the Federal Register (76 FR 20637) a notice inviting applications for new awards for FY 2011 under certain Personnel Development to Improve Services and Results for Children with Disabilities competitions authorized under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act. Through this notice, we are correcting a technical error in Focus Area E of the Personnel Preparation in Special Education, Early Intervention, and Related Services (84.325K) priority, which appears on pages 20640 through 20644 of the original application notice.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

We make the following correction:

On page 20643, second column, paragraph four, in Focus Area E: Preparing Personnel to Provide Secondary Transition Services to School-Age Children with Disabilities, second sentence, we remove the word “or” and replace it with the word “and”. The sentence now correctly reads, “Programs that offer a sequence of career, vocational, or secondary transition courses and that enable personnel to meet State requirements for a credential or endorsement in secondary transition services for children with disabilities are eligible under Focus Area E.”
