Opportunity Summary:
The FY 2011 Homeland Security National Training Grant Program, also referred to as the Homeland Security National Training Program (HSNTP), is a discretionary FEMA funding opportunity intended to strengthen nationwide preparedness by supporting the creation and delivery of homeland security training. The program is designed to further FEMA's mission by helping build and sustain training capabilities that can be used across the country, with an emphasis on supporting Federal, State, local, and tribal jurisdictions. Rather than being open to all applicants, the National Preparedness Directorate (NPD) planned to invite select organizations to apply based on their existing activities and identified training needs, meaning participation depended on receiving an invitation to be considered eligible under the solicitation.
Awards under this program were issued as cooperative agreements, which typically indicates a more active federal role than a standard grant. In practical terms, this means FEMA expected to collaborate with awardees on shaping training outcomes, ensuring alignment with FEMA doctrine and approved homeland security strategies, and potentially coordinating on content standards, delivery approaches, and program oversight. The core activities supported by the program include designing, developing, and delivering training content, along with providing related training support services that help jurisdictions implement and benefit from that training.
Eligible applicants were limited to institutions of higher education, specifically private institutions of higher education and public or state-controlled institutions of higher education. The funding activity category is education, with a specific focus on training. The opportunity anticipated making about nine awards. The listing is associated with CFDA 97.005, State and Local Homeland Security National Training Program. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants were not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving an award.
The opportunity was posted on September 15, 2011, with a creation date of September 20, 2011. The original closing date was September 26, 2011, but the current closing date listed is September 21, 2011, indicating the application window was short and may have been adjusted. The archive date is October 26, 2011. The notice lists award floor and award ceiling amounts as 0, which usually means the specific funding ranges were not provided in the public summary and would instead be defined in the full announcement or in the invitation and application guidance provided to eligible applicants.
The authorizing legislation for the FY 2011 solicitation is the Department of Homeland Security Appropriations Act, 2011 (Public Law 112-10). The funding opportunity number is DHS-11-NPD-005-000-01, and the federal administering agency is the Department of Homeland Security, FEMA. Additional information was available through Grants.gov, and applicants needing help accessing the full announcement were directed to the FEMA GPD Call Center at 866-927-5646.
