ClientTrack System Administration Guide
Table of Contents
Programs are utilized in ClientTrack to indicate how a client participates with an organization. Programs can be differentiated one from another by the types of services the client might receive, the expected outcome for clients who participate, and the resources being used to provide services for the program. Clients are enrolled into programs upon entry, participate in a program for a length of time, and are exited from the program when their participation is complete.
