Grant Description: The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) invites public and private organizations to submit proposal to provide business development training for nationwide 7(j) eligible client executives. The authorizing legislation for this training is Section 7(j) of the Small Business Act, U.S.C. 636(j). SBA will select successful proposals using a competitive process. Successful applicants under this program announcement will receive awards to deliver Executive Education Program (EEP) services. Award recipients will have responsibility for project oversight, design, marketing, management, execution, monitoring and reporting for the training program. Proposals are being solicited from organizations that have experience in Executive Education or similar Programs and have successfully provided executive level training to small business entrepreneurs on at least 3 occasions during the past five (5) years. Colleges and universities that respond to this solicitation, must have American Assembly for Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) accreditation or be a member of the American Indian Higher Education consortium (AIHEC). The applicant must have the qualified faculty, support staff, training and technical materials, equipment and facilities, or access to facilities, as well as an internal financial management system, to provide EEP training services to 7(j) eligible client executives in a classroom environment. The EEP proposal should represent training that will develop and improve the management and business decision skills of the 7(j) eligible clients. The enhancement of these skills should ensure the continued viability and growth of the small business owners in the 21st century. The EEP training curriculum must include the following three core subject matters for small business owners: strategic planning, financial analysis and e-commerce. Additional subject matters should include some of the following: internal management systems, business alliances, government contracting, information technology, market research, financial reporting, product lines, quality assurance services, human resources, insurance, taxation, legal issues, investments, international business opportunities and etc. SBA plans to award approximately $700,000.00, subject to the availability of funds, under this notice. This amount would fund several awards to provide EEP training to approximately 175 7(j) eligible executives. SBA reserves the right to fund in whole or in part, any, all, or none of the proposals submitted in response to this notice. Awards will have a project period of three (3) years - an initial 12 month budget period with up to two (2) option years. Award amounts may vary, depending on the number of 7(j) eligible clients that an applicant is able to train (and performance for option years). However, no single awardee may receive more than $400,000.00 in a single fiscal year. All proposals must provide training sessions for at least 30 eligible executives per class. Applications must be postmarked or received by SBA Headquarters Office of Procurement and Grants Management or mailroom staff, if delivered by other than the U.S. Postal Service, by 4:00 p.m. EDT on July 9, 2003. The program announcement and required forms will be available electronically at www.sba.gov/8abd. Limited quantities will be printed, therefore hare copies will be provided only upon request.
