Navigating the process to claim your Ihss Career Pathways Program Incentives and training time is straightforward when you know where to look. Just like submitting your regular IHSS timesheets, the portal for Career Pathways is conveniently located in the same place. This guide provides a clear, visual walkthrough to help you easily claim your well-deserved incentives.
To begin, access the IHSS electronic timesheet portal. Once logged in, direct your attention to the top left corner of the page where you’ll find a dropdown menu. Click on this menu, labeled “Time Entry,” and from the options presented, select “Career Pathways.” This action will lead you to the dedicated section for logging your Career Pathways activities.
After entering the Career Pathways section, your next step is to specify the type of claim you are submitting. You will be prompted to select between “training time” or “specific incentives.” Following this, you will need to choose the recipient for whom you are claiming. This ensures that your claim is correctly attributed.
It’s important to note a slight difference in terminology. While most IHSS Career Pathways Program materials refer to incentives as Incentive 1, Incentive 2, and Incentive 3, the IHSS e-timesheets portal uses different labels. When submitting your claims, ensure that all associated courses have been submitted beforehand. Then, utilize the dropdown menu to select the correct incentive. “Training Incentive” corresponds to Incentive 1, “One-Month Assignment Incentive” to Incentive 2, and “Six-Month Assignment Incentive” to Incentive 3.
On the subsequent page, you will be required to input your course information. Accuracy is key here. Include the course number and meticulously enter the course title exactly as it is listed, even if it requires using the full space provided. Avoid any abbreviations to prevent rejection of your claim. Specify the course number for the particular session you attended, as the same course title may have different numbers for self-paced and live versions.
When entering hours, refer to the Course Catalog for the listed duration. Even if a class concludes earlier than scheduled, you should still claim the total time indicated in the catalog. For self-paced courses, durations range from 30 minutes to three hours, and you will receive credit for the cataloged time, regardless of your actual completion time. However, be aware that the system tracks course engagement, so active participation with course materials is essential to ensure payment.
By following these steps, you can confidently navigate the IHSS electronic timesheet portal and successfully claim your IHSS Career Pathways program incentives and training time.
