About this opportunity
The U.S. Department of Transportation's Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) has announced its Fiscal Year 2025 Commercial Motor Vehicle Operator Safety Training (CMVOST) grant program. The program aims to expand the number of commercial driver's license (CDL) holders with enhanced safety training to reduce crashes involving commercial motor vehicles. Eligible applicants include accredited educational institutions, state/local governments, tribal organizations, nonprofits, and small businesses providing CMV operator training. Non-accredited institutions must be approved by the Department of Labor and the VA/State Approving Agencies. Applications are due by February 25, 2025, and must include a Title VI Program Compliance Plan. The program emphasizes training for current/former military personnel, underserved communities, and refugees.
The FY 2025 CMVOST grant program will award approximately $3.4 million in total funding, with individual awards capped at $200,000. Successful applicants will receive funding for a period of the fiscal year of award plus two additional fiscal years. The program does not require cost-sharing or matching funds from recipients. Common places of performance for these grants include states such as Iowa, Texas, Virginia, Florida, and Pennsylvania.
