million in grant funds to be awarded

TAACCCT grant program provides
eligible institutions of higher education,
as defined in section 102 of the Higher
Education Act of 1965 (20 U.S.C. 1002),
with funds to expand and improve their

workers who are eligible for training
under the Trade Adjustment Assistance
(TAA) for Workers Program (‘‘TAAeligible workers’’) of chapter 2 of title II
of the Trade Act of 1974, 19 U.S.C.
2271–2323, as well as other adults.

the 50 States, the District of Columbia,
Puerto Rico or the U.S. territories;
however, the competitiveness of

educational or career training needs of
workers who have lost their jobs or are
threatened with job loss as a result of
foreign trade by funding the expansion
and improvement of education and
career training programs that are suited
for these individuals; however, the
Department expects that a wide range of
individuals will benefit from the
TAACCCT program once education and
training programs are developed and
implemented.
The Department intends to fund
grants to single institution applicants
ranging from $2,372,500 to $2.75
million, totaling up to $150 million.
This allows the Department to award
54–63 grants to single institutions,
potentially funding more than one per
state. The Department will award grants
up to $25 million to single-state or
multi-state consortium applicants, up to
approximately $324 million in total
awards, which propose programs that
impact TAA-eligible workers and other
adults across a state, region or regions,
industry sector or cluster of related
industries.
The complete SGA and any
subsequent SGA amendments in
connection with this solicitation are
