Opportunity Summary:
The FY 2012 Homeland Security National Training Program (HSNTP) Continuing Training Grants (CTG) opportunity is a discretionary funding program run by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) through FEMA. Its purpose is to fund nationwide homeland security and emergency preparedness training efforts that support FEMA's broader mission, with a specific emphasis on continuing and sustaining training initiatives. The program is structured to help ensure that training provided across the country aligns with FEMA doctrine and with approved homeland security strategies, and that it is relevant and usable for practitioners operating at multiple levels of government.
A key feature of this solicitation is that it is not broadly open for any organization to apply in the usual way. Instead, the National Preparedness Directorate (NPD) planned to invite select organizations to apply based on their existing training activities and identified needs. Those invited applicants would compete for cooperative agreements, which typically means FEMA expects ongoing collaboration and involvement during the period of performance rather than simply issuing a grant and stepping back. The funded work centers on designing, developing, and delivering training content, along with providing training support for federal, state, local, and tribal jurisdictions. In practice, that can include curriculum maintenance or updates, delivery of courses to target audiences, and other implementation support needed to keep established training programs operating effectively and consistently with national preparedness priorities.
The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement under an education and training activity category (listed as "Education" with an explanation clarifying that the activity is "Training"). The opportunity was posted June 21, 2012, and closed July 3, 2012, with an archive date of August 2, 2012, indicating a short application window typical of targeted, invitation-based solicitations. The total estimated funding amount for the solicitation was $3,793,600. The opportunity anticipated one award, and both the award floor and award ceiling were listed at $2,200,000, signaling that the expected single award amount was essentially fixed at $2.2 million rather than a variable range. No cost sharing or matching requirement was indicated, so recipients were not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of the award.
Eligibility categories listed for this opportunity include state governments, county governments, city or township governments, federally recognized Native American tribal governments, public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, and 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations other than institutions of higher education. Even though multiple applicant types are listed, the invitation-based approach means that only organizations specifically invited by NPD would be able to submit an application under this solicitation. The program is associated with CFDA number 97.005, identified as the State and Local Homeland Security National Training Program, which helps applicants and stakeholders track the funding stream across federal assistance systems.
The legal authority cited for the FY 2012 solicitation is The Department of Homeland Security Appropriations Act, 2002 (Public Law No. 107-296). Administrative details include the funding opportunity number DHS-12-NPD-005-000-01 and the title "FY 2012 Homeland Security National Training Program (HSNTP) Continuing Training Grants (CTG)."
