Opportunity Information: Apply for ED GRANTS 022323 001
The U.S. Department of Education, through the Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services (OSERS) and the Office of Special Education Programs (OSEP), offered a discretionary grant competition titled "Personnel Development To Improve Services And Results For Children With Disabilities" under the specific program area "Associate Degree Preservice Program Improvement Grants to Support Personnel Working with Young Children with Disabilities" (Assistance Listing Number 84.325N). This opportunity is designed to strengthen the pipeline and quality of personnel who serve young children with disabilities by improving preservice preparation at the associate degree level, with an emphasis on aligning training with what states say they need and what research shows works.
At its core, the program’s purpose is twofold. First, it aims to help address state-identified personnel preparation needs across special education, early intervention, related services, and regular education roles that serve children with disabilities, including infants and toddlers as well as older children and youth. Second, it focuses on ensuring that the professionals prepared through these efforts gain the practical skills and knowledge they need to be effective, specifically drawing from practices supported by scientifically based research. In other words, the funding is meant to improve how future practitioners are trained so they can deliver higher-quality services and ultimately improve outcomes for children with disabilities and their families.
Eligible applicants are fairly broad within the education and nonprofit space. Public and state-controlled institutions of higher education and private institutions of higher education can apply, along with nonprofit organizations both with and without 501(c)(3) status, and other entities as allowed under additional eligibility details in the official notice. The funding instrument is a grant, and the activity category is education. The opportunity is listed under CFDA/ALN 84.325 (specifically 84.325N for this competition).
In terms of funding scale and competitiveness, the award ceiling is $200,000, and the Department expected to make around 10 awards. The opportunity was posted with applications available starting February 23, 2023, and the deadline to submit applications was April 24, 2023. For applicants subject to intergovernmental review processes, the deadline for that step was June 23, 2023. OSEP also planned to post pre-recorded informational webinars no later than February 28, 2023 to provide technical assistance to interested applicants, hosted on the Department’s OSEP grants page.
A key practical point is that the text provided is only a synopsis, and the authoritative requirements are in the official Federal Register application notice. That official notice is where applicants must look for the full set of rules and expectations, including specific eligibility conditions, application components, submission instructions, program priorities, required performance measures, and any pre-application or formatting requirements. The Department also directs applicants to follow the Revised Common Instructions for Applicants to Department of Education Discretionary Grant Programs (published December 7, 2022) for standard guidance on how and where to obtain and submit applications.
