Welcome to GEMS, the Grant Electronic Monitoring System, an initiative of the Michigan Department of Education.  GEMS improves the grant monitoring process by using a Web-based, paperless process.  GEMS features include:

• Allowing grant sub-recipients to interact with MDE from the beginning to the end of the monitoring review life cycle (whether a desk or on-site review is conducted).
• Providing a secure, Web-based system requiring no additional software.
• Allowing MDE to inform sub-recipients of the required documentation, including the ability to upload those required items for MDE review.
• Facilitating communication between sub-recipients and MDE as findings are reported and compliance plans are developed and approved.
• Providing FAQs and Best Practices information.
