Opportunity Summary:
The National Institute of Corrections (NIC) within the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) offered a FY 2010 discretionary funding opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number 10A59) to support the production and delivery of training media for the corrections field. The project was structured as a cooperative agreement, meaning NIC expected to be substantially involved during the project rather than simply issuing a hands-off grant. The overall purpose was to create professional training content and distribute it broadly to corrections practitioners and trainers using satellite and internet broadcasting, along with stand-alone DVD products.
Under this opportunity, the selected awardee would be responsible for producing four satellite/internet broadcast programs and three stand-alone DVDs. Three of the broadcasts were planned as nationwide satellite/internet events, each three hours long, designed to reach a wide audience across jurisdictions. The fourth broadcast was larger in scope: an eight-hour live program specifically aimed at trainers and facilitators, focused on "How to Use the Developed DVD." In practical terms, the deliverables combined both content creation (the DVDs) and a dissemination and implementation component (the broadcasts, especially the full-day trainer-focused session that would teach others how to use the DVD materials effectively).
NIC expected to make one award under this announcement. The funding was tied to CFDA 16.601, Corrections Training and Staff Development, aligning the project with NICs mission of improving correctional operations through workforce development and training. No cost sharing or matching funds were required, which lowered barriers for applicants that could perform the work but did not have extra funds to contribute.
Eligibility was broad and based on expertise rather than organizational type. NIC stated that any public or private agency, educational institution, organization, individual, or team with demonstrated capability in the required areas could apply. The focus on "expertise in the described areas" indicates the applicant needed a credible background in producing training programs, managing satellite/internet broadcasts, developing DVD-based training products, and likely working with corrections or similarly structured public-safety training environments.
The opportunity was posted and created on November 2, 2009, with an application closing date of December 1, 2009. It was later archived on December 31, 2009. The listing shows award ceiling and floor as 0, which typically signals that the specific funding amount was either not stated in the summary record or was to be detailed in the full announcement materials. Applicants needing help obtaining the full announcement were directed to contact Pamela Davison, Administrative Assistant, at 202-353-0484.
