2023-002 – Gramm Leach Bliley Missing Compliance Requirements. Auditor Description of Condition and Effect. The most recent written security policy fails to address how the College will oversee its information system service providers and the evaluation and adjustment of its information security program for any changes in the College's operations or the results of risk assessments. Additionally, the College's policy does not include performing annual penetration tests or biannual vulnerability assessments, as required by the Gramm Leach Bliley Act. As a result of this condition, the College isn't meeting the safeguard requirements necessary to comply with the FTC. In addition, the lack of safeguard controls creates an increased risk to highly sensitive data that is possessed by the College. Auditor Recommendation. We recommend that the College implement procedures to ensure that all Gramm Leach Bliley policies are met and confirmed by a second individual. Corrective Action. To address the missing element of Gramm Leach Bliley #6, procedures will be set in place to ensure oversight of our information service providers. A team will review and track who our providers are ensuring they meet our technical requirements in addition to the needs of our students and staff. To address the missing element of Gramm Leach Bliley #7, procedures will be set in place to ensure oversight of our information security protocols. A team will review our procedures at least annually, and make any necessary adjustments as changes to security protocols continue to evolve. Part of the procedures will include mandatory semi-annual information security training required by all staff, in addition to basic security information provided annually to students. Finally procedures to perform annual penetration testing will be established based on relevant identified risks. This could include any vulnerability assessments, in the form of systematic scans or review of information systems reasonably identified. These assessments should be completed at a minimum semi-annually, or whenever there may be material changes in operations that could be impacted. Responsible Party. Director of Information Technology and Student Services. Anticipated Completion Date. January 1, 2024.

2023-001 – Pell Grant Calculation. Auditor Description of Condition and Effect. The Uniform Guidance states that the College must determine the maximum scheduled award a student would receive based on their Expected Family Contribution (EFC) and Cost of Attendance (COA) using the payment schedule provided by the U.S. Department of Education. Students must be awarded on the basis of a COA comprised of allowable costs assessed to all students carrying the same academic workload. COA must be prorated for students who are attending less than an academic year, or who are less than full-time in a term-based program. As a result of this condition, the College was exposed to an increased risk that incorrect information would be used to determine students' Pell Grant award amounts. Auditor Recommendation. We recommend the College implement procedures to ensure the COA and EFC used to calculate each student's Pell Grant is updated for each academic year and reviewed by an independent official. Corrective Action. In the spring of each year, the College Financial Aid Department will establish the Cost of Attendance (COA) necessary for Pell student eligibility, in addition to the Educational Financial Contribution (EFC) for the following fiscal year. Once these are calculated and established, the head of the Business Office will review the calculations, discuss, and approve. Once they have been approved, the appropriate information will be entered into the Financial Aid software system. Responsible Party. Director of Financial Aid and Head of the Business Office. Anticipated Completion Date. June 30, 2024.

Management acknowledges that there was an error in the amount of Pell awarded to the student. Cleveland Institute of Art is in the process of calculating the number of students affected by the issue and reconciling any differences. The College is also reconfiguring the systems to ensure that this issue does not continue. The financial aid office will import on a regular basis the credit hour update/create student update into Powerfaids using the data integration from J1 table to load credit hours onto the student record until the Pell recalculation/census date. The financial aid office will continue to share with the Registrar’s office the Financial Aid credit hours update report that shows hours not contributing to the program so they can correct the coding on specific coursework into the appropriate “trees.” Powerfaids only imports hours contributing to the program. At the beginning of the semester, and prior to disbursing aid, the financial aid office will look for enrollment discrepancies and reconcile hours in their system with a registration report from the Registrar’s office. On the census date, which is defined as day 15 of the term, the financial aid office will lock down the enrollment hours on the student record after reconciling the hours on the student record with the hours on the Registrar’s census report.

Management’s Response – Corrective Action Plan: When using federal funds to compensate employees, Child & Family Resources (CFR) acknowledges that the internal controls need to reasonably assure that the charges are accurate, allowable and properly allocated. The records should support the distribution of the employee’s salary or wages among the specific activities charged. CFR uses a third party payroll company (Paycom) for payroll and time and attendance reporting. The payroll allocations are tracked based on percentages approved by the funding source or by employee entries on their timesheet reflecting the grant they are working on. For direct service employees that are allocated to various federal grants, CFR will include the following information on the budget narrative that will outline the specific employee, their time allocation and need. The Federal Program will be able to review and approve the amount of time these employees will spend under their specific grant rendering the allocation as an allowable expense. The language to be included within the budget narrative outlining this allocation is as follows: Labor Costs (Special Considerations): Compensation to members of the non-profit institution, trustees, directors, associates, officers and immediate family thereof: (Name of employee with breakdown of time to be spent on contract) Explanation of why this cost is necessary for the (Program’s) Operations: What is the total cost to the agency? Is the cost a less-than-arms-length transaction? Contact Person: The Grants & Contracts Coordinator (Scott Fauland) will complete the budget narratives for the federal funding agencies and include the above language within them in order to receive approval from the contracting agency. Completion Date CFR will submit the Special Considerations request to the current federal contracts awarded for Fiscal Year 2024 by December 2023 for approval. On new federal contracts, this language will be included on the budget narratives submitted from the original submission. This will be implemented for new contracts starting December 1, 2023.
