2021 Changes - Generic Program Settings - Agency Programs

Network Administrators can edit existing programs, but not create new ones. All new programs, whether at the network or agency level, still need to be created by our support team.

An agency program is a program created at the network level that was customized at the agency level or a program initially created at the agency level.
