CGMI-C
Compliance Integration
A mapping layer that formally connects CGMI maturity ratings and appraisal evidence to external accountability frameworks. Schools can use their CGMI appraisal report as a compliance evidence artifact in grant applications, authorizer submissions, and state accountability processes.
Current CGMI-C mappings
| External framework | CGMI domains mapped | Available at |
|---|---|---|
| CSP Grant Rubric (Federal) | D1 (Section H), D3 (Section A), D4 (Section F), D5 (Section E) | Level 2+ |
| NACSA Performance Framework | D2 (Compliance), D3 (Oversight), D4 (Financial), D5 (Transparency) | Level 2+ |
| Additional state mappings in development | — | — |
How CGMI-C activates by level
Identify which compliance frameworks are not yet satisfied by current governance maturity.
Appraisal report can be submitted as compliance evidence for all mapped frameworks.
Appraisal report carries stronger evidentiary weight. Compliance exhibit package included in Guided or Certified Appraisal output.
Full compliance artifact set. Level 5 requires a Certified Appraisal, which produces the highest evidentiary weight.
What the CGMI-C compliance exhibit contains
Generated at Guided Appraisal close for Level 2+ schools:
- ·Cross-reference table: CGMI criteria mapped to specific external framework requirements
- ·Evidence citations: which appraisal findings satisfy which external criteria
- ·Gap notation: external requirements not satisfied by current CGMI level, with advancement pathway
- ·Submission-ready formatting: structured for direct attachment to CSP applications and NACSA submissions
