Primary DTA Pathway

Accessing DTA through the California System of Support

The LEA should first consult and work with its county office of education (COE). The CCEE may also establish contact with the COE.

The COE will consider the request and may confer with the regional Geographic Lead Agency (Geo Lead) in determining the right kind of support.

If the COE and Geo Lead agree the advice and assistance from the CCEE is necessary, then our agency can engage with and consider offering direct technical assistance to the LEA at no cost.
