Opportunity Summary:
The Cultural Resources Digital Content Internship (Funding Opportunity Number P16AS00404) is a National Park Service program under the Department of the Interior focused on supporting an intern who will help modernize and maintain the National Park Service Washington Support Office (WASO) cultural resources web presence. The internship is centered on updating public-facing digital content by moving existing cultural resources websites from static HTML pages into the CommonSpot Content Management System (CMS). In practical terms, the intern would be involved in planning the transition, identifying what content exists, determining how it should be organized in the CMS, and helping ensure the updated pages are accurate, consistent, and usable for the public.
The work described blends technical content migration with strong communication and coordination responsibilities. The intern is expected to do research and writing as part of rebuilding web pages inside CommonSpot, while also working closely with the Cultural Resources Digital Media Team and specific cultural resources program staff. This suggests a collaborative workflow where the intern gathers information from subject matter experts, translates it into clear web-ready content, and applies CMS formatting and structure so the information displays correctly and follows NPS web standards. Over the course of the internship, the participant would also build familiarity with how cultural resources programs operate at the Washington office level, which can be valuable exposure for someone pursuing federal cultural resources, interpretation, communications, or digital media work.
From an administrative and funding standpoint, this opportunity is listed as a discretionary award using a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument, and it falls under an education activity category (CFDA 15.931). The eligible applicant type is limited to nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education). The listing indicates an expected single award with an award ceiling of $25,440.
A key detail is that the opportunity was not open for competitive applications. The notice states a notification of intent to enter into an agreement with American Conservation Experience (ACE) without additional competition, and that no applications would be accepted. The opportunity record was created on July 27, 2016, and reflects a direct, pre-identified partner arrangement rather than a standard open grant competition.
