New USED CTE Funding Opportunity
The U.S. Department of Education is now accepting applications for the Innovation & Modernization discretionary grant program. This program, authorized by Perkins V, is designed to identify, support and rigorously evaluate evidence-based and innovative strategies and activities to improve and modernize career and technical education (CTE) and align workforce skills with labor market needs. Sub-recipients of Perkins Title I formula funds (e.g., LEAs and community colleges) as well as certain consortia identified in the law are eligible to apply. Not less than 25% of the funds available for grants must be awarded to recipients in rural areas, if a sufficient number of applications of sufficient quality are received from applicants serving rural communities. Applications will be accepted through June 14, 2019.
