Opportunity Information: Apply for 18 PHL NOFO 02
Keeping the Philippines Competitive in English is a U.S. Department of State grant opportunity administered by the U.S. Mission to the Philippines that supports an education-focused professional development initiative for Filipino educators. The program is designed for a targeted group that includes Filipino teachers, teacher trainers, and curriculum development specialists, with the overall goal of strengthening English language teaching and learning outcomes in the Philippines. The opportunity emphasizes practical capacity-building rather than research alone, aiming to deliver training and professional connections that can translate into improved classroom instruction and stronger curriculum design.
The core purpose of the project is to improve participants' American English knowledge and skills and to expand their ability to teach effectively in multilingual communities, which reflects the linguistic realities in many parts of the Philippines. Applicants are expected to propose activities that promote recognized best practices in teaching English as a second language, such as effective pedagogy, instructional strategies, and approaches that support learners who use multiple languages at home and at school. Another central objective is to create or strengthen a professional network between American and Filipino educators, suggesting that the program should include relationship-building components such as mentoring, peer exchange, collaborative sessions, or ongoing communities of practice that can continue after the formal training ends.
This is a discretionary funding opportunity using a cooperative agreement, meaning the U.S. government is likely to have substantial involvement during the project period compared to a standard grant. The funding activity category is Education, and the opportunity is listed under CFDA number 19.040. The competition was announced on August 12, 2018, with an original closing date of September 14, 2018.
Eligibility is limited to nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, excluding institutions of higher education as eligible applicants under this posting. The award ceiling is $64,000, and the U.S. Embassy anticipated making one award, indicating a single, relatively compact project budget and a competitive selection process where applicants would need to present a clear, feasible program design with strong outcomes for the chosen cohort of Filipino education professionals.Apply for 18 PHL NOFO 02
