Opportunity Summary:
The Advanced Education Nursing Grants opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number HRSA-09-101) is a discretionary grant program run by the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) under CFDA 93.247, the Advanced Nursing Education Grant Program. Its central purpose is to fund projects that strengthen and expand advanced nursing education and practice by supporting institutions that prepare nurses for higher-level clinical, leadership, education, and public health roles. In practical terms, the program is designed to help schools and other eligible nonprofit entities improve the training pipeline for advanced practice and other advanced education nurses, with an emphasis on enhancing educational capacity, quality, and outcomes.
For this opportunity, "advanced education nurses" are defined broadly as nurses trained in advanced degree programs at the masters and doctoral levels. This includes students enrolled in combined RN-to-Masters programs and post-masters nursing certificate programs. It also includes nurse-midwifery certificate programs that were already in existence as of November 12, 1998. The roles the program aims to prepare and support include nurse practitioners, clinical nurse specialists, nurse midwives, nurse anesthetists, nurse educators, nurse administrators, and public health nurses. The overall intent is to improve the supply and preparation of these professionals by investing in the institutions and projects that educate them.
Eligible applicants include collegiate schools of nursing, academic health centers, and other private or public nonprofit entities, as long as they are accredited by a recognized accrediting body (or bodies) or a state agency and are approved for nursing education purposes by the Secretary of Education. The announcement also allows a pathway for newer nursing programs that are not yet accredited due to an insufficient period of operation, provided they are eligible for accreditation and the Secretary of Education determines, after consultation with the appropriate accrediting organization(s), that there is reasonable assurance the program will meet accreditation standards by a specific timeframe tied to the first cohort's expected graduation cycle. New programs attempting to qualify under this provision are directed to contact the Department of Education's Accreditation and State Liaison Unit at 202-219-7011 for guidance on obtaining the required determination.
The competition projected an expected 54 awards with an estimated total funding level of $13,842,972. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, which means applicants generally are not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving an award. The opportunity was posted on September 25, 2008, with an application closing date of December 15, 2008, and it was later archived on February 13, 2009.
