Opportunity Information: Apply for 21PR10
The National Institute of Corrections (NIC), within the U.S. Department of Justice, is offering a cooperative agreement to support the delivery of its Staffing Analysis training through a virtual instructor-led training (VILT) format and to develop related electronic resources. NIC has a long history in this area, noting more than 30 years of providing staffing analysis tools and guidance to the corrections field. Its staffing analysis methodology is described as widely regarded as an industry standard, and the purpose of this award is to broaden access to that methodology by expanding modern, virtual training and technical assistance options for correctional agencies.
At the center of the opportunity is NICs intent to give federal, state, local, and tribal correctional agencies more chances to participate in the VILT version of the staffing analysis program. The solicitation emphasizes that staffing analysis can be complex, time-consuming, and especially challenging for new or less experienced analysts. NIC is positioning the VILT approach as an improvement over traditional classroom delivery because it can be structured to provide deeper, more sustained practice rather than a short, condensed exercise. In an in-person course, time limitations typically restrict hands-on activities to a brief simulation of the overall process, which may help participants understand the concepts but does not replicate the experience of completing a full staffing analysis end to end.
By contrast, the VILT curriculum described here is designed to walk participating agencies through the staffing analysis process step by step while they actually complete a staffing analysis during the training engagement itself. In other words, the training is meant to function not only as instruction but also as a guided implementation, allowing participants to build practical competence by doing the work with structured support over time. This is intended to make the learning experience more realistic and to help agencies leave the program with both improved capability and tangible progress on an actual analysis.
The opportunity also has a capacity-building element aimed at expanding NICs pool of qualified facilitators. Applicants are strongly encouraged to use instructors who have not previously facilitated the NIC staffing analysis program, and proposals that do so will receive additional consideration during the review process. The stated rationale is to increase the number of available instructors over time, which would support broader dissemination of the program and make it easier for NIC to meet ongoing demand across jurisdictions.
From an administrative standpoint, this funding opportunity is listed as "Staffing Analysis - Virtual Instructor-Led Training Delivery and E-Resource Development" with funding opportunity number 21PR10. The instrument type is a cooperative agreement, indicating that NIC expects substantial involvement in the project rather than a hands-off grant. It is associated with CFDA number 16.601 and categorized under "Other" for both opportunity and activity classifications. The award ceiling is $100,000, with one award expected. The posting indicates a creation date of February 22, 2021, and an original closing date of April 23, 2021. Eligibility is described broadly as "Others," with additional eligibility details referenced in the full announcement.Apply for 21PR10
