Summary:

GAO reported last year that the Year 2000 problem posed significant risks to the Department of Education's student financial aid delivery systems, from systems testing to exchanging data with internal and external partners to developing business continuity and contingency plans. (See GAO/T-AIMD-98-302, Sept. 1998.) GAO also reported on the status of Education's mission-important and mission-supportive systems. (See GAO/T-AIMD-99-8, Oct. 1998.) This testimony recaps GAO's earlier findings and the steps that the agency needs to take to reduce risk, Education's progress since then, and future tasks facing Education.
