Opportunity Summary:
The Faculty Development Integrated Technology into Nursing Education and Practice Initiative (HRSA-10-061) is a discretionary federal grant opportunity from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA). It is designed to strengthen nursing education by helping accredited collegiate schools of nursing work collaboratively to develop faculty skills in using information and related technologies. The broader aim is to expand the ability of nursing programs to prepare students for modern, technology-rich health care environments, reflecting the demands of 21st century clinical practice.
This opportunity was offered as a cooperative agreement, meaning recipients would typically work in closer partnership with HRSA than under a standard grant, often involving more programmatic involvement and shared expectations around implementation and outcomes. The funding falls under CFDA 93.359 (Nurse Education, Practice Quality and Retention Grants), with an estimated total program funding of $600,000 and an expectation of two awards. Each award could be funded up to a ceiling of $300,000, and there was no cost-sharing or matching requirement, which reduces the financial barrier for eligible institutions to apply.
Eligible applicants were accredited collegiate schools of nursing that could carry out the initiative's purpose. In practical terms, the school of nursing needed to be accredited by a national nursing education accrediting agency, or have state approval from a state approval agency recognized by the U.S. Department of Education. The announcement indicates the focus on "nursing collaboratives," which signals that HRSA was looking for proposals that bring partners together, such as multiple nursing schools or education-to-practice partners, to build faculty capacity around technology-enabled teaching and learning, and ultimately improve how nurses are trained for contemporary care settings.

Overall, the program can be understood as an investment in nursing faculty development specifically tied to technology integration, with the downstream goal of improving nursing education capacity and readiness for real-world practice. By targeting faculty proficiency with information technologies and other educational or clinical technologies, HRSA aimed to help nursing schools modernize teaching methods, strengthen informatics and technology competencies, and better align nursing curricula with evolving health care systems where electronic information, digital tools, and technology-supported care are standard.
