Grant Description: The Office of Global Educational Programs of the U.S. Department of State's Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs (ECA) announces an open competition to administer the Community College Faculty and Administrator Program with Indonesia. Community college consortia and other associations of accredited U.S. community colleges meeting the provisions described in Internal Revenue Code section 501 (c) 3 may submit proposals to cooperate with the Bureau to administer and implement a four-month exchange program for participants from post-secondary vocational and technical institutions in Indonesia. Key components of the Program will include professional development, leadership training, and the experience of U.S. society and culture. The four-month academic exchange program will take place from January 2011 onward. In addition, if needed, English instruction will be offered in the U.S. to selected participants during the fall prior to the start of the academic program. The total award for all program and administrative expenses covered under the agreement will be up to approximately $500,000. In order to maximize the number of participants under this program, it is the Bureau's expectation that significant institutional and private sector funding and cost-sharing will be made available by cooperating organizations. We anticipate that approximately 18 to 20 faculty and administrators will participate in the program with one faculty and one administrator participating from each one of nine or ten vocational or technical institutions in Indonesia.
