The Department of Justice Bureau of Prisons is seeking a continuation of a Cooperative Agreement for Parole Board Training Resource Development & Delivery under the Corrections Training and Staff Development program. This specific opportunity (ID 359846-F) is not a competitive solicitation, but a direct continuation of a prior award (23CS08GLQ3), with applications from organizations other than the previous recipient being automatically disqualified. The primary objective is to develop comprehensive training, curriculum, and technical assistance initiatives for correctional personnel nationwide, focusing on creating seminars, workshops, and training programs for law enforcement, judicial personnel, probation and parole professionals, and other criminal justice stakeholders. The grant aims to enhance professional capabilities, leadership skills, and operational practices across various correctional settings through targeted training development and knowledge transfer. The due date for this non-competitive opportunity is July 21, 2025, with the grant posted on June 27, 2025.

Typical federal grant awards under this program range from $75,000 to $275,000 for 12-month project periods, with potential for multi-year extensions. The funding will be administered through a cooperative agreement, primarily targeting nonprofit organizations, for-profit entities, and higher education institutions. Performance locations will span federal, state, and local correctional facilities nationwide, with a focus on developing virtual and in-person training curricula, e-learning modules, policy guides, and specialized training resources. The project will likely involve creating blended learning experiences that address emerging challenges in corrections, improve staff competencies, and support organizational development in the criminal justice system.
