2. What is CAIS?
CAIS is a web-based tool designed to enhance & streamline the CPM process, & track the implementation & evaluate the effectiveness of your District Improvement Plan.
How does CAIS affect you?
CAIS does not change the established CPM process. The primary difference in districts is that you will collect & upload electronic versions of certain evidentiary documents for review by CDE, rather than providing hard copies that are currently required.

How is CAIS Organized? 10
11. CAIS is customized to display the program instruments monitored at the LEA each school year.
LEAs may track previous year’s monitoring activity and access documentation across years.
Instrument pages display information about the current status of the review for that program and certain links to individual item pages where evidence is uploaded

20. Deciding what documents to upload:
CAIS is no different than deciding what to copy and put into former “CPM Boxes”.
However, you want to be sure you are uploading the documents that specifically pertain to the CPM item and not every document you think can pertain to the item
Uploading Documents 20
21. Statute specifies evidence
Statute does not specify evidence, however, LEAs typically submit “X” document(s)
Evidence varies greatly, thus, each LEA determines the evidence that it believes is responsive to the legal requirement
