Earlier today the My AmeriCorps Recruitment system began to experience periodic problems. In order to alleviate this problem we need to reboot the Corporation’s servers causing our systems – including the My AmeriCorps Portal, Recruitment System, and eGrants – to be unavailable for approximately 30 minutes. The reboot is scheduled to begin at 8:00 PM EST and will terminate all actions within these systems. We anticipate having the systems back up by 8:30 PM EST. |
