Opportunity Summary:
The FY 2014 Homeland Security National Training Program (HSNTP) Continuing Training Grants (CTG) opportunity is a discretionary Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and FEMA funding program designed to support the development and delivery of innovative training that can be used nationwide. The core goal is to help communities across the United States strengthen preparedness by funding training programs that address emerging needs and gaps, with an emphasis on solutions that have national reach rather than being limited to a single jurisdiction or local audience. Projects are expected to focus on practical training outcomes that improve readiness and capability in homeland security and emergency management contexts.
A key expectation in this opportunity is alignment with nationally recognized preparedness priorities. Applicants are encouraged, where feasible, to design and deliver training that supports priorities identified in the National Preparedness Report and the Capability Estimation Process. In practical terms, this means proposed training should be informed by current assessments of preparedness capabilities and should be targeted at areas where improvements are needed most. The opportunity is framed around developing training that is not only innovative in content or delivery methods, but also responsive to what communities are facing now, including evolving threats, hazards, and operational challenges.
Funding is provided through cooperative agreements, which typically means FEMA anticipates an ongoing level of involvement in the execution of the work compared to a standard grant. The total estimated funding available under this announcement is $11,000,000, and FEMA expected to make approximately 8 awards. The listing does not specify an award floor or ceiling, indicating applicants should propose budgets that are appropriate for the scope of work and the national-level impact of the training effort. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, which can reduce barriers for applicants that do not have non-federal funds available to contribute.
The eligible applicant pool is broad and includes multiple types of government and nonprofit organizations as well as higher education. Eligible entities include state governments, county governments, city or township governments, and federally recognized Native American tribal governments. Nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status are eligible, as are both public/state-controlled institutions of higher education and private institutions of higher education. This range suggests FEMA is open to training initiatives led by academia, government training centers, and qualified nonprofit organizations that can demonstrate the capacity to build and deliver training at a national scale.
Administratively, the opportunity is identified by Funding Opportunity Number DHS-14-NPD-005-000-02 and is associated with CFDA number 97.005, State and Local Homeland Security National Training Program.
