Opportunity Summary:

The National Institute of Corrections (NIC) announced a fiscal year 2011 discretionary funding opportunity to support the production of seven live, nationwide training broadcasts delivered via satellite and the Internet. The award was structured as a cooperative agreement, meaning NIC expected to have substantial involvement in the project’s direction and execution rather than simply issuing a grant with minimal federal participation. Each of the seven programs was planned as a three-hour live broadcast intended for a national audience, reflecting NICs role in delivering large-scale corrections training and staff development programming.

In addition to the live events, the scope of work included producing a set of short supporting videos: approximately twelve to fifteen video vignettes, each under five minutes. These short segments were intended to reinforce and extend the training content from the broadcasts, either as companion materials tied directly to the satellite/Internet programs or as stand-alone assets NIC could reuse across other training initiatives. Taken together, the broadcasts and vignettes point to a project focused on both real-time training delivery and the creation of reusable multimedia content that could continue to support NIC training beyond the live air dates.

The opportunity was listed under Funding Opportunity Number 11AC02 and carried the title "Production of Seven Live Satellite/Internet Broadcasts." It fell under the CFDA program 16.601, Corrections Training and Staff Development, and the activity category was identified as "Other" with a clarification indicating the work was primarily production-focused. NIC anticipated making a single award (Expected Awards: 1). There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, which generally lowers the barrier to entry for applicants and places the primary financial responsibility on federal funding rather than requiring applicants to contribute their own funds.

Eligibility was broad and open to a wide range of applicants, including public or private agencies, educational institutions, organizations, individuals, or teams, as long as they had expertise relevant to producing and supporting the described broadcast and video deliverables. The solicitation was posted on November 22, 2010, with an application deadline of December 15, 2010, and it was archived on January 14, 2011. The notice did not specify an award floor or ceiling in the provided data (both listed as 0), which typically means applicants needed to consult the full announcement for budget expectations, allowable costs, and detailed submission requirements.

For technical issues accessing the full announcement, the listed point of contact was Pamela Davison, Administrative Assistant, reachable by phone at 202-353-0484.
