How it works

Launch in days, not months.

  1. Step 1

    Set up your program

    ETA sets up a branded program page with your name, welcome message, seats and dates, for businesses, schools or public agencies.

  2. Step 2

    Share one link

    Send the link through your newsletters, events, advisors and partners. Each organization signs in and builds its plan in about 15 minutes.

  3. Step 3

    See your region in real time

    Your dashboard shows plans built, average readiness by area, top priorities, planned investment and the funding programs matched most.

  4. Step 4

    Turn plans into projects

    Organizations track progress, prepare funding applications and request proposals from vetted ETA Partners. You see who wants help.

Questions

Can the program carry our brand?

Yes. The program page shows your organization as the sponsor, with your name, description and welcome message. Plans and dashboards run on joineta.org.

Can it run on an AI Ready state site?

AI Ready programs can link straight to your program page. Ask us about embedding it in your own site.

What happens when seats run out?

New sign-ups see a clear message and can still build a free summary on their own. We can add seats any time.

Do you share participants' data with us?

Only for plans the owner chooses to share with you, and only what's in the plan and their contact details. Totals are anonymous.

Report a bug or suggest a feature

It goes straight to the ETA team with the page you're on, so you don't need to send screenshots.
