Employment and Training Evaluation Projects

The Department of Labor Employment and Training Administration last issued a grant award under this program on June 27, 2001, through the Employment and Training Evaluation Projects Assistance Listing (CFDA 17.248). No grant opportunities have been posted recently, and no awards have been disbursed for over two decades.

The program funded discrete evaluation and policy development projects in employment and training, as evidenced by three awards issued in June 2001. Recent grant activity included policy development to support industries employing workers with disabilities, a disability and entrepreneurship summit, and technical accessibility research documentation. All three awards were structured as Project Grants, the sole assistance type used under the program.

Combined federal dollars obligated across the three awards totaled $215 thousand, with individual award values ranging from $55 thousand to $80 thousand. The Department of Labor Employment and Training Administration provided all funding.

This program appears dormant. The most recent award dates from 25 years ago, with no subsequent grant opportunities posted or awards issued. The portfolio shows minimal activity even during its operational period—three awards in 2001 only. Business development professionals should not pursue funding under this Assistance Listing without confirming current program status directly with the Department of Labor Employment and Training Administration, as no evidence of active solicitation or recent award activity supports present-day pursuit.
