Charter School Organization Access Requests and Profile Setup in GAINS

• Any general or grant-specific director or update roles: Charter School and/or District/CSI personnel 
• LEA Fiscal Representative: District/CSI personnel as determined by the authorizer 
• LEA Authorized Representative: District/CSI personnel as determined by the authorizer 

System Workflow and Role Responsibility

The above personnel structure will apply to most funding applications in GAINS and the workflow will proceed as follows: 

1.  Charter school or authorizer personnel completes the application draft in GAINS.
2. The LEA Fiscal Representative from the authorizing district or CSI completes their approval in GAINS.
3. The LEA Authorized Representative from the authorizing district or CSI completes their approval in GAINS.

Once the application status is at LEA Authorized Representative Approved, it is fully submitted to CDE.

For charter schools with questions on who should hold the Fiscal Rep and Authorized Rep roles for your organization profile in GAINS, please reach out to your contact at your authorizing district or CSI. To change a role associated with the charter school, email GAINS@cde.state.co.us.
