Promote Pharmacist Education on Potentially Driver Impairing Drugs | Apply Online

Opportunity Summary:

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), within the U.S. Department of Transportation, announced a discretionary funding opportunity using a cooperative agreement mechanism titled "Promote Pharmacist Education on Potentially Driver Impairing Drugs" (Funding Opportunity Number DTNH22 09 R 00249). The core purpose is to sustain and extend the impact of an existing online training course focused on drugs that may impair driving. NHTSA is looking for a partner organization that can both keep the course viable over time and ensure it stays current and useful after the course's existing continuing education (CE) certification period ends. In practical terms, the project is about maintaining the course, keeping the content relevant, and supporting the administrative and professional steps needed to recertify it so pharmacists and pharmacy technicians can continue to receive recognized CE credit for taking it.

The opportunity is structured as a cooperative agreement, which typically means the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement during the project rather than simply issuing a grant and stepping back. The activity is categorized under Science and Technology and other Research and Development, and it is tied to CFDA number 20.614 (NHTSA Discretionary Safety Grants). NHTSA anticipates making a single award for this project, with a total award amount not to exceed $250,000. The listing shows an award ceiling of $250,000 and an award floor of $250,000, indicating the agency expected one recipient to carry out the full scope at that funding level. No cost sharing or matching requirement is stated.

Eligibility is open to a defined set of applicant types: state governments, academic institutions, nonprofit organizations, and for-profit organizations. While the posting notes "unrestricted" eligibility in the data fields, the narrative clarifies that competition is limited to those categories of entities. The successful applicant is expected to focus on outreach and promotion of the online course to the pharmacy workforce, particularly pharmacists and pharmacy technicians, and to manage or facilitate the process required to renew the course's CE status at the end of the current certification period. The emphasis on longevity and relevance suggests that NHTSA wanted a partner capable of ongoing course stewardship, audience engagement, and coordination with CE accrediting bodies or processes so the training remains available and credible over time.

Key dates and submission instructions are clearly specified. Applications had to be submitted and received by 3:00 p.m. Eastern Time on Friday, June 12, 2009, and only complete application packages received by that deadline would be considered. Applicants were instructed to submit materials to NHTSA's Office of Acquisition Management (NPO 320) to the attention of Sherese A. Gray at 1200 New Jersey Avenue, S.E., W51-121, Washington, D.C. 20590, and to include a reference to Cooperative Agreement Number DTNH22 09 R 00249 in their submission. Applicants also needed to provide a complete mailing address suitable for Federal Express delivery. Questions were handled by the same contact, Sherese A. Gray, Contract Specialist, and the announcement set a question deadline of 3:00 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time on Tuesday, May 19, 2009, with questions to be submitted via email to sherese.gray@dot.gov. The opportunity was posted May 12, 2009, with an original and current closing date of June 12, 2009, and an archive date of July 12, 2009.
