Programs Approved for Funding and Tuition and Fees and Other Required Expenses for Approved Programs RRTC will pay for required books and supplies for courses in approved programs. All programs are approved for both WIOA and TAA participants. Career Planners: Before you enroll a student in a program, ask him/her to bring you the handout (if applicable) with any special needed program requirements such as certain supplies, medical exam, drug tests, shots, background checks, testing fees, etc. (The items that WIOA will cover for Medical Assistant are listed in this R&R.) WIOA and TAA students will be processed in the same manner as any other customer. They will take individual responsibility for providing any necessary paperwork or documentation required to proceed through the funding process. (It will be TWC s decision whether or not to have a designated single person that all WIOA students will use as a contact person.) From TWC s standpoint, the final responsibility for providing all necessary information will rest with the WIOA.TAA student directly. Career Planners will NOT intercede and contact RCC personnel for needed information if it is not forthcoming from the student in a timely manner. This could result in a delay of funding to the student if he/she is not conscientious in this matter.
