Opportunity Summary:
The Office of Vocational and Adult Education (OVAE) Native Hawaiian Career and Technical Education Program (NHCTEP), CFDA 84.259A, is a discretionary grant opportunity offered by the U.S. Department of Education to support career and technical education efforts that specifically benefit Native Hawaiians. The program is grounded in section 116 of the Carl D. Perkins Career and Technical Education Act of 2006, and its main aim is to fund eligible organizations so they can plan, run, and manage career and technical education programs (or parts of programs) designed to meet the education and workforce needs of Native Hawaiian communities. In practical terms, the grants are meant to strengthen training pipelines, improve access to career-focused learning, and support services that help Native Hawaiian learners gain skills aligned with employment and further education.
Eligibility is focused on community-based organizations that primarily serve and represent Native Hawaiians. Under this program, a community-based organization can be either public or private, as long as it provides career and technical education or related services to people in the Native Hawaiian community. This emphasis on community-based delivery signals that applicants are expected to be closely connected to the populations they serve and capable of delivering culturally responsive programming that fits local needs and circumstances.
The Department anticipated making about 10 awards under this funding round, with an estimated total funding amount of $2,779,500. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement stated for this opportunity, which typically makes participation more feasible for organizations that may not have substantial non-federal resources available to contribute alongside the grant.
Applications were required to be submitted electronically through Grants.gov, unless an applicant qualified for an exception under the instructions in the official notice. Applicants were directed to locate the application package by searching the CFDA number without the letter suffix, meaning applicants should search for "84.259" rather than "84.259A." Grants.gov support was available through the Grants.gov Helpdesk at 1-800-518-4726 or support@grants.gov, which is especially relevant for organizations that encounter technical issues during submission.
The timeline for the FY 2013 competition reflects a correction to the initial Federal Register notice. While the notice inviting applications was published on June 14, 2013, the corrected date when applications were actually available was June 26, 2013. The corrected deadline for transmittal of applications was July 26, 2013 (replacing an earlier date of July 17, 2013). The opportunity was later archived on August 25, 2013, indicating that it was no longer open for new submissions after the close of the application window.
For official details beyond the synopsis, applicants were directed to the Federal Register notice (78 FR 35877) and to the full announcement materials linked in the posting. The Department also provided direct points of contact for assistance: Joyce Mays, Management Analyst, at 202-245-6122 or joyce.mays@ed.gov for access issues, and Program Manager Linda Mayo at 202-245-7792 or linda.mayo@ed.gov for program-related questions.
