Opportunity Summary:
The Rehabilitation Training National Clearinghouse of Rehabilitation Training Materials (CFDA 84.275A) is a discretionary grant opportunity from the U.S. Department of Education focused on strengthening the rehabilitation workforce that serves people with disabilities. The larger Rehabilitation Training program is designed to make sure there are enough well-prepared, up-to-date professionals available to deliver high-quality rehabilitation services across multiple settings, including vocational rehabilitation, medical rehabilitation, social and psychological rehabilitation, supported employment, independent living services, and client assistance programs. A central theme of the opportunity is keeping current professionals trained in modern practices, including state-of-the-art service delivery approaches and rehabilitation technology, so services remain effective and aligned with evolving needs and tools.
This particular competition is framed around operating or supporting a national clearinghouse of rehabilitation training materials. In practical terms, a “clearinghouse” role generally means collecting, organizing, maintaining, and distributing training resources that can be used by rehabilitation personnel and related programs. While the synopsis does not spell out the specific required activities, it signals that the funded project is expected to support the broader goal of improving personnel quality and consistency by making high-value training materials accessible and usable at a national level.
The opportunity is identified as Funding Opportunity Number ED-GRANTS-042610-003, categorized as a discretionary grant in the education funding activity area. The notice anticipated a single award (Expected Awards: 1), with an estimated total funding amount of $300,000 and an award ceiling of $300,000. It also lists a cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning the applicant would be expected to contribute a portion of project resources as defined in the official Federal Register application notice (the synopsis does not provide the percentage or allowable forms of match).
Eligibility is broad and is centered on public and nonprofit capacity. Eligible applicants include States and public or nonprofit agencies and organizations, including Indian tribes and institutions of higher education. The listing also indicates that a wide range of entity types may apply, such as state and local governments (including counties and cities or townships), public and private institutions of higher education, federally recognized tribal governments and other tribal organizations, special district governments, public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities, and nonprofits (including 501(c)(3) organizations and certain nonprofits that are not 501(c)(3), other than institutions of higher education). As with many federal education competitions, the official notice is the controlling document for final eligibility details and any special conditions.
Applications for this competition were required to be submitted electronically through the Department of Education’s e-Application system, accessed via the Department’s e-Grants website (http://e-grants.ed.gov). The synopsis emphasizes that applicants must use the online system to enter and save data directly and that applications cannot be submitted by emailing an electronic copy to the agency. Key dates included applications being made available on April 26, 2010, and a deadline for transmittal of applications of June 10, 2010, with the opportunity later archived on July 10, 2010. The posting date and creation date are both listed as April 28, 2010.
For official requirements such as application package contents, performance measures, selection criteria, priorities, formatting rules, and any pre-application steps, the Department directs applicants to the Federal Register notice titled “Rehabilitation Training National Clearinghouse of Rehabilitation Training Materials CFDA Number 84.275A Notice Inviting Applications for New Awards for Fiscal Year (FY) 2010.” The synopsis also points readers to the Government Publishing Office’s Federal Register access page (as listed in the notice) for free online access to the official publication, underscoring that the Federal Register version governs if there is any discrepancy.
Contact information included a systems support contact for access issues and a program manager within the Rehabilitation Services Administration.
