2024 Florida ID&R Statewide Training

The Identification and Recruitment Office (ID&R) is pleased to announce that the 2023-2024 Statewide Training will be held on April 29-30, 2024 in Orlando, Florida.

This Annual in-person event is designed to provide Florida’s local Migrant Education Program (MEP) recruiters, coordinators, and support staff with an interactive training experience focused on ID&R. Attendees will examine ID&R case studies, practice documenting migratory child eligibility using Florida’s updated Certificate of Eligibility (COE) and conducting mock eligibility re-interviews. Attendees will also have the opportunity to network with their peers to obtain new skills and ideas. And don’t forget to stop by one of the vendor tables that will be available as well.

We look forward to seeing you there!
