Grant Opportunities

The most common solicitation method is the Request for Applications. A Request for Application (RFA) is a formal document used by funding agencies (often government or non-profit) to solicit proposals for specific projects or initiatives. RFAs may be competitive (scored) or issued on a first come, first served basis once the minimum qualifications have been met. Each RFA will have its own eligibility requirements. Generally, an applicant must be a governmental entity, a nonprofit organization, or a for-profit organization. Explore open and past RFAs opportunities at the listed websites. The Jobs and Education for Texans (JET) program awards grants to eligible schools and colleges. These entities may use the funding to buy equipment to support new and expanding career and technical education (CTE) programs.
