To verify that a page you are accessing uses SSL be sure you see https:// in the URL

Also look for the gold lock which appears at the bottom right of your browser (your SSL
lock may appear in a different location depending on the browser you are using). Double click this

The 'Online Reports' section of the website is operating again for CAP 2005-2006.
Submission due dates for statistics and invoicing are as follows:
2005, July 31 (For period 07/01 to 07/31)
2005, August 31 (For period 08/01 to 08/31)
2005, September 30 (For period 09/01 to 09/30)
2005, October 31 (For period 10/01 to 10/31)
2005, November 30 (For period 11/01 to 11/30)
2005, December 31 (For period 12/01 to 12/31)
2006, January 31 (For period 01/01 to 01/31)
2006, February 28 (For period 02/01 to 02/28)
This year we have done away with the 'General' statistics and invoicing passwords. Now all
that is required to gain entry to these sections are the 'Regional' passwords.
Just a reminder that the base hourly rate for youth workers is $8.50 with the benefit multiplier still at %17.5.
Very shortly we hope to have an SSL (secure sockets layer) certificate which will serve to protect the submission of reported data.
Once implemented you should notice a small padlock in the bottom right of every report entry page (icon and location depending on your browser)
indicating your data is being protected by SSL. This is just one of the ways we are taking steps to ensure the privacy and
security of our users and their personal information.
Please note that the French versions of the 'Online Reports' will be arriving shortly.
Also note that this website is currently running off of a small temporary server and response times will be slower. Eventually the website will
migrate to a larger, long-term home, but for now we will have to grin and bear it.
Lastly, as always, please let us know if you have any questions or suggestions.
