Guidance on Review of T15 Grant Applications
[CONTINUING EDUCATION TRAINING GRANTS]

National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute
National Institutes of Health

On this page:

The purpose of the T15 mechanism is to assist professional schools and other public and non-profit institutions to establish, expand, or improve programs of continuing professional education, especially for programs with new developments in the science or technology of the profession.
The intent of the award is to assist in establishing the course and not to sustain it over an extended period of time.
By the end of the original project period of a T15 grant (usually five years), a course should be well-established and self-sufficient through tuition, fees, and other revenue sources.

T15 applications must be submitted in response to a specific Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) in which NHLBI participates.
Specific instructions for T15 applications submitted in response to an Institute solicitation can be found in the FOA.
FOAs can be found at http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/index.html

New (Type 1) T15 applications must follow the procedures for submission, as described in the specific FOA.
Investigators who are considering applying are advised to consult NHLBI staff beforehand.

NHLBI will not accept Type 2 (renewal) T15 grant applications. There will be no exceptions to this policy.

For applications submitted in response to a specific FOA, please refer to Section VII.1 of the FOA (Scientific/Research Contact(s)) for contact information.

For general questions about the T15 program and programmatic interest in specific applications within the scientific Divisions of the Institute, interested individuals should contact:
