Opportunity Summary:
The Rehabilitation Training: Rehabilitation Long Term Training program (Rehabilitation Services Administration, U.S. Department of Education) is a discretionary grant opportunity intended to help address personnel shortages in the rehabilitation field. The program funds long-term training projects that build the workforce needed to serve individuals with disabilities by supporting structured education and training pathways. In practical terms, the grant supports three broad types of efforts: projects that provide basic or advanced academic training leading to a degree in rehabilitation shortage areas identified by the Secretary; projects that deliver a defined sequence of courses leading to a certificate in those same shortage areas; and projects that support medical residents who are enrolled in residency programs in physical medicine and rehabilitation. The opportunity is tied to the Rehabilitation Long Term Training CFDA listing (the synopsis references CFDA 84.129B in the description, while the opportunity title and listing highlight 84.129C), and applicants are expected to rely on the official Federal Register notice for the controlling requirements, priorities, performance measures, and application instructions.
For FY 2010, the Department anticipated making one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $100,000 and an award ceiling of $100,000. A cost sharing or matching requirement applies, meaning applicants should be prepared to contribute non-federal resources consistent with what is specified in the official notice. The application window opened April 23, 2010, and the deadline to submit applications was June 7, 2010, with the opportunity later archived on July 7, 2010. Because this is a synopsis, key details such as the project period, allowable costs, selection criteria, and any absolute or competitive preferences are not fully laid out here and must be confirmed in the Federal Register application notice.
Eligibility is broad and includes states and public or nonprofit agencies and organizations, including Indian Tribes and institutions of higher education. The eligible applicant categories listed span public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, state and local governments (including counties and cities/townships), federally recognized tribal governments and other tribal organizations, special district governments, public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities, independent school districts, and nonprofits (including those with and without 501(c)(3) status), with the official notice providing the definitive eligibility rules and any additional conditions.
Applications were required to be submitted electronically through the Department of Education e-Application system via the e-Grants website (http://e-grants.ed.gov). The notice emphasizes that applicants enter information directly into an online system that saves to a database and that applications cannot be submitted by emailing an electronic copy to the agency. The synopsis also points applicants to free access to the Federal Register and regulations via GPO Access (as referenced in the notice) and stresses that the Federal Register version is the official controlling document.
For questions or technical help accessing the announcement, the notice lists a systems contact (Julius Cotton, ED Grants.gov FIND Systems Administrator, 202-245-6140, julius.cotton@ed.gov). It also provides a program contact at the Rehabilitation Services Administration: Traci DiMartini, U.S. Department of Education, Rehabilitation Services Administration, 400 Maryland Avenue SW, Room 5027, Potomac Center Plaza, Washington, DC 20202-2800, telephone 202-245-6425.
