Opportunity Summary:
The Job Skills Training Program (Funding Opportunity Number FWS R5 RW 10 051) is a discretionary funding opportunity offered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to support an education-focused job skills training program based at the Missisquoi National Wildlife Refuge in Swanton, Vermont. The award is intended to fund a structured training effort that helps participants build practical, workforce-relevant skills in a real-world refuge setting, aligning with the Service's broader interest in training and technical assistance activities.
Funding is provided through a cooperative agreement, which generally means the Fish and Wildlife Service expects to have substantial involvement in the project during the period of performance rather than simply issuing funds and stepping back. The opportunity is listed under CFDA 15.649, Service Training and Technical Assistance (Generic Training). The program anticipated making one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $35,000. The award ceiling is $35,000, and the award floor is $1,000. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, so applicants are not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the award.
A range of applicant types were eligible, including nonprofit organizations with or without 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education), for-profit organizations other than small businesses, Native American tribal organizations that are not federally recognized tribal governments, and federally recognized Native American tribal governments. The announcement was posted on July 12, 2010, with the application closing date set for July 16, 2010, and the opportunity later archived on August 15, 2010. For access issues related to the full announcement or electronic materials, the listed contact was Christal Cutler, Contract Specialist, reachable by phone at 413-253-8233, and identified as the point of contact for electronic error messages.
