New Central Referral System
Starting in FY26, there is one central method for MN ABE staff to refer students to Online Statewide classes.
- Use the FY26 Online Statewide Training Courses Referral Form to review class offerings, start dates, student eligibility, and expectations.
- A tutorial is available to guide you through the referral process.
We encourage you to share these opportunities widely and to use the new referral system to ensure smooth student placement.
