About this opportunity

The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration is seeking applications for its Fiscal Year 2024 Commercial Motor Vehicle Operator Safety Training grant program, which will provide approximately $3.5 million in funding. Eligible applicants include accredited colleges, universities, vocational schools, truck driver training schools, as well as state and local governments and certain non-accredited institutions. Successful applicants will expand commercial driver's license holder safety training to help reduce crashes involving commercial vehicles. Applications will be evaluated on technical, budgetary, performance, and equity focus criteria and are due by April 19, 2024.

Awards will be made through two-year cooperative agreements or grants starting in Fiscal Year 2025. Funding will support improving safety on U.S. roads by training individuals, including military veterans and their families, to safely operate commercial vehicles. Funded projects must focus on recruiting, instructing, and placing qualified students in commercial driving positions across the United States.
