Opportunity Information: Apply for ED GRANTS 021624 001
The Office of Postsecondary Education (OPE) is offering a discretionary grant opportunity under the Federal TRIO Programs called the Training Program for Federal TRIO Programs (Assistance Listing Number 84.103A). This competition is designed to strengthen the day-to-day operations and overall effectiveness of TRIO-funded projects by investing in high-quality training for the people who run them or plan to work in them. In practical terms, the program funds organizations to develop and deliver training that builds the skills of TRIO staff and leadership personnel, with the end goal of improving how TRIO services are managed and delivered to students.
The core purpose is capacity-building for the TRIO workforce. The grant supports training for personnel who are currently employed in TRIO projects, those who participate in TRIO efforts, and individuals preparing for employment in TRIO-funded projects. The emphasis is not on direct student services, but on improving project operation by enhancing professional knowledge and leadership ability across TRIO programs. While the synopsis does not list specific training topics, the intent is clearly to raise the quality and consistency of project implementation, which typically includes areas like program administration, compliance expectations, effective service delivery, data and performance management, and leadership development aligned with TRIO program goals.
Eligible applicants include institutions of higher education (IHEs) as well as other public and private nonprofit institutions and organizations. The eligibility categories listed in the source information include public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status, and nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status (as long as they are not IHEs), along with an "others" category as reflected in the posting. This broad eligibility is meant to allow a range of entities with relevant expertise such as colleges and universities, nonprofit training providers, or nonprofit organizations with deep experience in TRIO to propose and run training initiatives that benefit the TRIO field.
Key administrative details from the posting include the funding opportunity number ED GRANTS 021624 001, a closing date of April 16, 2024, and an award ceiling of $402,357. The Department of Education expects to make about 13 awards under this competition. Because this is a discretionary grant, applications are competitively reviewed, and applicants should expect to follow the Department of Education's discretionary grant application requirements and submission procedures.
The synopsis repeatedly notes that the short description is not a substitute for the official application notice published in the Federal Register. Applicants are expected to rely on that official notice for the complete requirements, including how to apply, any pre-application steps, required forms and narratives, performance measures, program priorities, and contact information. It also points applicants to the Department's Revised Common Instructions for Applicants to Department of Education Discretionary Grant Programs (published December 7, 2022) for the standard instructions on obtaining and submitting applications. For the authoritative version of all terms and conditions, the Federal Register notice is the controlling document.Apply for ED GRANTS 021624 001
