[edit] CalWIN ready to lockout Foodstamp, Medi-CAL, Calworks accuracy forever

The CalWIN consortium led by EDS (the vendor) established standard training schemes in preparation for sequential roll-out county by county. Now it is certain that the training and support lacks the capacity to carry county staff to any measure of readiness to go-live. CalwIN case-scenario based training is a joke. CALWIN LIVE IS NO JOKE. Case maintenance tasks that took five, ten, or fifteen minutes in CDS (the legacy welfare case data system) - require several hours to complete in the CALWIN system. The neccesity to "resolve discrepant cases" after conversion is about one out of two cases. Intake /application/registration in CALWIN presents an astonishingly vast array of opportunity for erroneous data - entry. It is suggested that the State of California will certainly die trying to live down this half-billion dollar boon doggle.
