Opportunity Summary:
The National Institute of Corrections (NIC) offered this discretionary funding opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number 12AC02) to support the production of training-focused, live satellite and Internet broadcasts for a nationwide audience. NIC planned to fund one cooperative agreement lasting up to twelve months, with work starting around January 2012. The core requirement was to produce at least five live programs, each structured as a three-hour national broadcast delivered via satellite and/or Internet streaming. The intent was to create high-quality, instructionally useful programming consistent with NIC's broader mission of corrections training and staff development (CFDA 16.601).
In addition to the live broadcasts themselves, the project scope included creating pre-recorded supporting media, such as short video clips and screen captures. These elements were meant to strengthen the instructional impact of each broadcast and also improve overall production value, including the visual presentation of materials, the broadcast set, and other on-screen components used during the sessions. In practical terms, NIC was looking for a partner that could handle end-to-end production tasks associated with a polished distance-learning broadcast series, combining live delivery with prepared visual segments that make the training clearer and more engaging for viewers.
The award was structured as a cooperative agreement, which typically means NIC expected substantial involvement during the project rather than a hands-off grant. While the announcement did not specify an award floor or ceiling (both listed as 0), it anticipated making a single award. There was no cost-sharing or matching requirement, lowering the barrier for applicants that could provide the needed expertise without contributing additional funds.
Eligibility was broad and included essentially any qualified public or private entity, educational institution, organization, individual, or team with demonstrated expertise relevant to producing the described broadcasts. The opportunity was posted on November 7, 2011, with an application closing date of November 21, 2011, and it was archived on November 22, 2011. For technical assistance with accessing the full announcement, the listed contact was Pamela Davison, Administrative Assistant, at 202-353-0484.
