Opportunity Summary:
The Advanced Licensing Seminar - Serbia grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number ISN ISNECC 14 015) was a U.S. Department of State program run through the Bureau of International Security and Nonproliferation under the Export Control and Related Border Security (EXBS) framework (CFDA 19.901). It was posted on August 4, 2014, and sought a single awardee to carry out a specialized training activity focused on nonproliferation objectives. The central purpose was to provide an advanced licensing seminar for licensing and policy-making officials from the Government of Serbia, strengthening their ability to evaluate, regulate, and manage strategic trade and export licensing decisions in a way that supports effective export controls and reduces proliferation risks.
This opportunity was offered as a discretionary cooperative agreement, meaning the U.S. government expected to have substantial involvement in shaping, overseeing, or coordinating the project during implementation, rather than simply issuing a grant with minimal engagement. The funding activity category was listed as "Other," with the clarification that it fell under nonproliferation work, which aligns with broader U.S. efforts to help partner countries build robust export control systems and related enforcement or administrative capacities.
The total estimated funding available for the project was $100,000, with an award ceiling of $100,000 and a floor of $0, and the announcement anticipated making one award in total. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants were not required to contribute additional non-federal funds as a condition of eligibility. The application window was relatively short, with an original and current closing date of August 22, 2014, and the opportunity was later archived on September 21, 2014.
Eligibility was open to a range of organization types that could credibly deliver a technical seminar of this kind, including private institutions of higher education, public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, and U.S. nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status. The announcement also referenced Public International Organizations as eligible. In practical terms, the target applicants would be entities with demonstrated expertise in export controls, strategic trade management, licensing procedures, and policy development, and with the operational capacity to organize and deliver advanced training for government officials.
For applicants or interested parties who had difficulty accessing the full announcement, the public-facing contact point provided was the Grants.gov Contact Center (support@grants.gov, 1-800-518-4726), which operates continuously except on federal holidays.
