Curricula Development Cooperative Agreement Program Service

The National Institute of Standards and Technology, located in Washington, DC, is seeking a partner to develop undergraduate and graduate level curricula that incorporate documentary standards, standards development, and standardization of information and content. The agency is trying to educate students about these concepts so they enter the workforce or continue their studies with a strong understanding and appreciation of the value and benefits of standardization. The scope of work covers the creation of seminars, modules, courses, and learning resources. The partner must develop sustainable approaches, methods, and models that demonstrate how colleges and universities can replicate and build upon the curriculum. Additionally, the agency requires the development and implementation of a plan to broadly disseminate project information, results, and outcomes through internal and external outreach. Only organizations based in the United States are eligible to apply for this cooperative agreement program. The agency requires the performance of all work to occur offsite. The agency is currently looking for proposals to establish the budget, and the source document does not specify further evaluation criteria or key dates.
