Opportunity Information: Apply for ED GRANTS 062718 002
The Office of Postsecondary Education (OPE) Training Program for Federal TRIO Programs (CFDA 84.103A) is a discretionary grant opportunity from the U.S. Department of Education designed to strengthen the quality and effectiveness of federally funded TRIO projects by investing in the training of the people who run them. In practical terms, the program supports structured training efforts for TRIO staff and leadership personnel who are already employed in TRIO projects, are participating in TRIO work, or are preparing to enter TRIO employment. The central goal is operational improvement: helping TRIO projects function better by building staff capacity, sharpening leadership skills, and spreading effective practices that align with TRIO program requirements and performance expectations.
This funding opportunity is published as a synopsis of the official Federal Register application notice, which is the controlling source for all requirements. The notice directs applicants to consult the Federal Register for the complete set of rules and details, including eligibility nuances, pre-application and application requirements, submission procedures, performance measures, selection criteria, priorities, and program contacts. It also points applicants to the Department of Education "Common Instructions for Applicants to Department of Education Discretionary Grant Programs" (published February 12, 2018; 83 FR 6003) for standardized directions on how to obtain, complete, and submit an application, including the specific addresses and procedural steps.
Key administrative details from the opportunity listing include the funding opportunity number ED GRANTS 062718 002 and an initial timeline in which applications became available on June 27, 2018, with a deadline for transmittal of applications on July 27, 2018. The maximum award amount (award ceiling) shown is $344,945, and the listing anticipates approximately 10 awards. As a discretionary grant, awards are competitive and subject to the Department's review process and the priorities and criteria laid out in the official notice.
Eligibility is broad and spans multiple sectors, reflecting the range of entities involved in education and training. Eligible applicants include state governments, county governments, city or township governments, and special district governments; independent school districts; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; private institutions of higher education; nonprofit organizations both with and without 501(c)(3) status (as long as they are not institutions of higher education, as specified in the listing); and additional eligible entities as clarified in the official notice under the "Additional Information on Eligibility" field. This wide eligibility suggests the program is meant to support training capacity wherever TRIO expertise and training infrastructure can be credibly delivered, not solely within colleges and universities.
Overall, the opportunity is intended to fund training initiatives that enhance the professional skills, compliance knowledge, and programmatic effectiveness of TRIO personnel, thereby improving the delivery and outcomes of Federal TRIO Programs. Anyone considering an application would need to rely on the Federal Register notice for the authoritative requirements and to ensure their training design, target audience, and proposed activities match the program's expectations and any established priorities for that competition year.Apply for ED GRANTS 062718 002
