Opportunity Summary:
The International Justice Sector Education and Training Program (IJET) is a U.S. Department of State, Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL) grant opportunity designed to strengthen justice institutions overseas by investing directly in the professional development of key justice sector leaders. Its core purpose is to give foreign judges, prosecutors, criminal defense attorneys, and other justice sector officials a structured, practical training experience that equips them to drive sustainable, long-term reform inside their own organizations. Rather than focusing on one-off workshops, IJET is framed as a multi-phased program that combines education, applied learning, and mentorship so participants can return home with a concrete reform project plan that is realistic, actionable, and tailored to their institutional context.
The program is organized around several potential thematic tracks that can be selected based on country needs and program design. These themes include continuing legal or judicial education and training (building systems that improve ongoing professional learning for judges and legal professionals), leadership and management (strengthening managerial and organizational capacity within justice institutions), and oversight (improving accountability mechanisms, integrity systems, and supervisory structures). INL also allows for an alternative focus area if it is mutually agreed upon by INL and the selected implementer, giving the award flexibility to align training with emerging justice reform priorities. A defining feature of IJET is that selected justice sector personnel travel to the United States, where they receive skills training and mentorship intended to help them develop a sustainable reform project plan for implementation in their home country, with the broader aim of creating institutional change that lasts beyond the program period.
From an administrative standpoint, this opportunity was offered as a discretionary grant using a cooperative agreement, which typically means INL expects to have substantial involvement in the project’s direction and implementation compared to a standard grant. The funding activity is categorized under criminal justice systems (listed as "Other" with clarification provided), and the CFDA number associated with the opportunity is 19.703 (Criminal Justice Systems). INL anticipated making one award under this announcement, with an expected funding range between $550,000 (award floor) and $700,000 (award ceiling). Cost sharing or matching was not required, which reduces barriers for applicants that may not have access to non-federal matching funds.
Eligibility was limited to organizations positioned to design and deliver high-quality education and training programs, specifically private institutions of higher education, public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, and nonprofit organizations holding 501(c)(3) status (other than higher education institutions). The opportunity was originally posted on June 23, 2015, created on July 21, 2015, and closed on August 22, 2015, with an archive date of September 21, 2015. For access issues related to the full announcement, the listed support channel was the Grants.gov Contact Center (1-800-518-4726, support@grants.gov), available 24/7 except federal holidays.
