Recap of new features:
Applicant File Review (Only live for Early Adopters Centers in Group 1)
- The Applicant File Review (AFR) process has transitioned from CIS to MyJobCorps for center staff for Early Adopters. Staff responsible for AFR (center records, health and wellness) and Regional Review processes (regional health specialists, regional directors) will onboard onto MyJobCorps in specific user roles based on their job responsibilities.
- AFR in Gateway will streamline admissions and center processes, document management, and collaboration between OA and centers.
- We will onboard centers in 4 groupings, beginning with Early Adopter centers in Group 1 today and Groups 2-4 starting in April. Centers in each group will be notified and staff will be trained in advance before AFR features are turned on for their center.

Digital Health Questionnaire Collection from Applicants
- Applicants can now complete and submit their Health Questionnaire in Portal as part of their application process.
- Admissions Staff are notified when applicants submit their Health Questionnaire and it’s available in the new “Health” tab.

Constituent Issues from the National Contact Center (NCC)
- MyJobCorps is now integrated with NCC to receive OA constituent issues from callers. Constituent issues originating from the NCC will sync with Gateway and automatically create a Task in the corresponding OA provider’s queue – just like the constituent issues coming from the MyJobCorps help desk.
- These tasks work the same way as your other tasks in Gateway, which are categorized by type and assigned by OA Managers for resolution. Task owners can view where the task originates from in the Source column.
New Alerts Feature
- All Gateway users now have a new Alerts screen to get quick notifications for their cases. Alert notifications are designed based on the relevant activities for each user role in Gateway, so you’ll only receive notifications about actions you need to take.
- Internal alerts such as “Applicant has uploaded a new document” will keep you up to date on important case activities.
- See the related user materials: Manage Alerts user guide, Admissions Alert Messages
Applicant Driver’s License Information
- Applicants can now provide their driver’s license information when they complete their application so the information can be used to determine future education and training needs.
- Admission staff can view this info in the “Application” tab under Basic Information, which includes the status of the license, state, license number, and expiration date.
Search Using Contact Information
- Admissions Staff can now search cases using an applicant’s phone number or email, providing another way locate cases in addition to searching by name or application tracking/identification number.
- This expanded search options helps admissions staff quickly locate cases in Gateway based on their ongoing correspondence with applicants.
