About this program
The Department of Education Office of Innovation and Improvement has not posted new grant opportunities under the Transition to Teaching program (CFDA 84.350) since May 2011, and has not awarded new grants since October 2011, making this program inactive for pursuit. The program historically funded development and expansion of alternative teacher certification routes and recruitment of mid-career professionals, recent graduates, and paraprofessionals into teaching roles in high-need schools. All 296 grants in the portfolio are Project Grants, distributed across local, statewide, and national tracks. The Department of Education Office of Innovation and Improvement funded 287 awards totaling $377.4 million in federal dollars, with a smaller set of 9 awards from the Department of Education proper accounting for $13.4 million. Combined federal and non-federal dollars obligated reached $1.04 billion.
Recent awards from the 2010–2011 funding cycle reflected the program's scope: Project Grant U350A070064 obligated $125.2 million to a local initiative; U350A070039 obligated $170.8 million to another local effort; and U350A070051 obligated $34 million to a local partnership. Smaller awards ranged from approximately $800 thousand to $5 million. Statewide initiatives such as "North Carolina's Inspire" and "Delaware's Transition to Teaching Partnership" received awards in the $1 million to $4 million range, while national-scope projects such as "Project KNOTTT 3.0: Mobilizing National Educator Talent" drew $10.3 million. The most recent opportunities posted in March 2011 with a May 31, 2011 due date targeted State educational agencies, high-need local educational agencies, nonprofits and for-profits with recruitment records, institutions of higher education in partnership with high-need LEAs, and consortia of SEAs or LEAs. The program has received no new opportunities in the past fifteen years.
