Opportunity Information: Apply for ETA TEGL NO 18 17
The Fiscal Year 2018 Allotments for the Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) Training and Other Activities (TaOA) opportunity is a mandatory grant funding announcement from the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL), Employment and Training Administration (ETA). Its purpose is to distribute FY 2018 formula-style allotments to state workforce agencies so they can deliver benefits and reemployment services to workers who have been negatively impacted by foreign trade. In practical terms, this funding supports states in helping eligible, certified workers regain employment through training and related supports when layoffs or job losses are tied to trade-driven impacts.
The statutory foundation for the program comes from the Trade Act, specifically Title II, Chapter 2, with states operating as agents of the United States under section 239 of the Trade Act. The announcement ties to the broader Trade Adjustment Assistance Program (often referred to simply as the TAA Program), which includes several related components: Trade Adjustment Assistance for Workers (TAA), Alternative Trade Adjustment Assistance (ATAA), and Reemployment Trade Adjustment Assistance (RTAA). Together, these components are designed to provide a structured pathway for trade-affected workers to access services such as training and other employment-related assistance aimed at returning them to suitable work.
This opportunity is identified by Funding Opportunity Number ETA-TEGL-NO-18-17 and is categorized as mandatory, meaning the awards are tied to established allotments rather than a competitive selection process. The funding activity category is Employment, Labor and Training, and it is associated with CFDA number 17.245. While the eligibility field is labeled as "Others," the description clarifies that the intended recipients are state workforce agencies, which apply on behalf of their state programs to receive their specified FY 2018 allotment amounts.
To apply, states were instructed to submit an electronically signed SF-424 (Application for Federal Assistance) through Grants.gov. A key administrative requirement is that applicants must use the exact funding amounts provided by ETA, referenced as being listed in Attachment 1 of TEGL No. 18-17. ETA indicated it would make awards as soon as funds became available for obligation and as SF-424 submissions were received, emphasizing timely submission and alignment with the predetermined allotment figures.
The announcement was created on June 18, 2018, with an original closing date of July 15, 2018. Applications needed to be received by the deadline stated in the announcement (noted as 40000 p.m. Eastern Time, which appears to be a formatting error but is presented that way in the source text). The expected scale of funding is significant: the award ceiling is listed as $58,776,517, with an estimated 52 awards anticipated, which strongly suggests distribution across states and potentially territories or similar jurisdictions consistent with how statewide workforce funds are typically allocated.
Overall, this grant opportunity functions as the annual mechanism for ETA to provide states with FY 2018 TAA Training and Other Activities resources so they can administer federally authorized trade adjustment benefits and services. The emphasis is on helping workers certified under the TAA Program access training and employment supports that address the specific challenges of job displacement linked to international trade impacts, with states responsible for carrying out these services under federal program rules and guidance.Apply for ETA TEGL NO 18 17
