Applicants must demonstrate expertise in creating mission-critical training, utilize adult learning approaches, avoid duplicating existing programs, and follow FEMA's Unified Training Needs Assessment process. Key evaluation criteria will include the ability to strengthen community resilience, develop training for natural, human-caused, and technological threats, and support DHS and FEMA strategic priorities. The application period is open from July 28, 2025, to August 11, 2025, with submissions required through the FEMA Grants Outcomes (GO) system.
The total funding opportunity is $70,060,000, with anticipated awards to the five specified institutions through a cooperative agreement. The performance period for the grant will run from September 1, 2025, to August 31, 2027, covering a two-year timeline. Successful applicants will be expected to collaborate with enterprise partners, develop innovative learning technologies, and undergo course recertification every three years. The training solutions will be designed to support state, local, tribal, and territorial jurisdictions in enhancing emergency responders' preparedness capabilities. Courses developed under this program will be made available through firstrespondertraining.gov, ensuring nationwide accessibility of the training materials.
