ACP4Schools Resource Guide: Focus - Compliance
Updated: October 29, 2026

Configuration Checklist

To get your site ready for "Go-Live," follow this sequence.

1. Review the Course Catalog Import: Check your imported Course Catalog and modify or update course descriptions, departments, etc. as needed.
2. Build Course Catalog Connections: 
   1. Add or modify tags for AP, CAPP, IRC, Work-Based Learning, Dual-Credit, Required Courses, Prerequisites, etc. 
   2. Map courses to the applicable sub-cluster(s). Your module will automatically display courses in the applicable Cluster Career Pathways once the sub-cluster mapping is done.
3. Check the LMI: Check your Labor Market Information templates for your specific region. Reach out to our support team if you do not see the correct LMI for your region.
4. The Compliance Link: Ensure your Board-approved ACP/E4E long-range plan is uploaded and meet Title II ADA Digital Accessibility. (DPI requires this to be public.) Note: Most PDFs are not automatically accessible compliant. We have content templates available to help you move your ACP and E4E plans to a fully digital accessible compliant format.

Determine what content, or pages, is needed to complete your student and family engagement, and Education for Employment compliance goals.

Required Content

These key communication pieces are required for compliance. If they are already on your high school or district website, be sure to review or audit for accessibility compliance. If they are needing to be created or updated, building on your ACP4Schools site is ideal to keep all your E4E / ACP content in one location.

• Graduation requirements (we will add this by default included in your initial setup).
• Active ACP / E4E plan, fully accessible and publicly available.
• Additional compliance requirements as defined by WI PI-26

Strongly recommended content pages:

1. Family Resources. Links for supporting student's planning and understanding the process.
2. Financial Aid information page
3. Events. Include career fairs, college visits, information and planning sessions, job shadows, etc.
4. Portrait of a Graduate.

As mentioned in your onboarding, you don't need to start from a blank page. We have content templates available for you to quickly add and customize.

Your initial setup includes building out your ACP Plan if provided to us.

• Option A: Send us the URL of your current website’s "Counseling" or "ACP" page.
• Option B: Drop your text into a shared Google Doc.
• Our Team Will: Migrate that content into the new modular templates that meets ADA Digital Compliance. You can update and modify as needed.

As you finish the basics, start gathering info for these high-value sections that increases both family engagement and community involvement.

• Alumni Success Stories: "Where are they now?" blurbs to inspire current students.
• Business Partners Directory: A list of local businesses that welcome student tours or apprentices.
• Middle School "Bridge" Content: Specifically for 8th-grade parents as they prepare for the high school transition.
