Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity, titled "Strengthening Pre service and In service HIV Training in the Republic of Kenya under the Presidents Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR)," is a continuation cooperative agreement issued by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) under the U.S. President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR). It falls under the health funding activity category and is tied to CFDA number 93.067 (Global AIDS). The purpose, as indicated by the title and CDC sponsorship, is to support ongoing efforts in Kenya to strengthen HIV-related training for the health workforce at two key points: pre-service education (training that occurs before a person enters professional practice, such as through medical, nursing, clinical officer, laboratory, pharmacy, or other health training institutions) and in-service training (continuing education and skill-building for health workers already providing care in clinics, hospitals, and community health settings). In practical terms, this type of grant supports the systems, curricula, and training capacity needed to ensure that health professionals can deliver high-quality HIV prevention, treatment, and care services aligned with national guidelines and PEPFAR priorities.
The award mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which generally means CDC expects to have substantial involvement with the recipient in implementing the work. Rather than being a hands-off grant, cooperative agreements often include close technical collaboration, joint planning, and active oversight to ensure that training content, delivery methods, and evaluation approaches remain consistent with evolving HIV science, national program needs, and PEPFAR strategy. The announcement anticipates a single award (ExpectedAwards: 1), suggesting the work is intended to be centralized through one recipient organization to maintain continuity, standardization, and coordination across the targeted training activities.
Eligibility is highly restricted. This is continuation funding intended only for organizations that were previously awarded under the earlier funding opportunity referenced as PS09 988 (the same initiative). In other words, it is not an open competition for new applicants; it is designed to extend or sustain work already underway by an existing CDC grantee. The opportunity category explicitly states "Continuation," reinforcing that the goal is to keep a previously funded program operating and progressing rather than launching a brand-new initiative with new partners. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning the recipient is not required to contribute a specified portion of non-federal funds as a condition of the award.
Key administrative details include the posting and creation date of February 12, 2012, an original and current closing date of April 2, 2012, and an archive date of May 2, 2012. These dates indicate the window during which the continuation application materials would have been due and when the opportunity was formally closed and archived. The funding instrument, timeline, and limited eligibility all align with a continuation action meant to sustain momentum and protect prior investments in Kenya's HIV workforce training infrastructure.
For assistance accessing the full announcement, CDC provided a point of contact through CDC PGOTIMS, with phone number 770-488-2700 and email pgotim@cdc.gov. This contact information is meant for technical help with retrieving or viewing the funding documents rather than programmatic consultation.
Overall, the opportunity is best understood as a CDC/PEPFAR-supported continuation effort focused on strengthening Kenya's pipeline of trained health workers and improving the competencies of those already delivering HIV services. By emphasizing both pre-service and in-service training, the program aims to improve the quality and consistency of HIV service delivery over time by embedding up-to-date HIV competencies into formal education systems while also upgrading skills within the existing workforce, a dual approach that supports both immediate program performance and long-term sustainability of Kenya's HIV response.
