As federal expectations evolve, TRIO directors and staff must navigate compliance with clarity, confidence, and purpose. This in-person training, hosted by the Council for Opportunity in Education, brings together seasoned practitioners and COE leaders to strengthen your understanding of the compliance landscape and provide practical strategies to ensure your program thrives in 2025.

Through program-specific breakout sessions, participants will examine essential elements of compliance, from program management to fiscal authority and budget alignment. Faculty will guide you in connecting day-to-day operations with federal requirements, helping you build systems that are both efficient and sustainable. The training will close with a unifying session on how TRIO professionals can sustain their work while adapting to evolving expectations.

Designed for TRIO directors and staff who are responsible for maintaining program compliance, this training offers the chance to learn directly from peers in the field while gaining the tools to strengthen accountability and program outcomes.

Join us in Boston on November 21 to sharpen your compliance skills and position your TRIO project for success in the year ahead. Reserve your spot today.
