Opportunity Information: Apply for ETA TEGL PY FY DW 2018
The Program Year (PY) 2018 Allotment for the WIOA Dislocated Worker Program is a mandatory grant action issued by the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL), Employment and Training Administration (ETA), to distribute PY 2018 Dislocated Worker formula funds under the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) Title I. The announcement primarily serves as a formal notice to states and outlying areas about their PY 2018 funding levels and the steps required to draw down those funds. While the broader TEGL covers allotments for multiple workforce programs (Adult, Dislocated Worker, Youth, Wagner-Peyser Employment Service, and Workforce Information Grants), the specific funding opportunity number tied to this posting, ETA-TEGL-PY-FY-DW-2018, applies to the Dislocated Worker program allotments (CFDA 17.278). The funding is categorized under Employment, Labor, and Training, and the instrument type is a grant, but it functions as a formula-based allotment rather than a competitive solicitation.
Eligibility is aimed at the usual WIOA formula fund recipients, described in the notice as states and outlying areas, with the eligibility category listed as "Others" and clarified through the opportunity text. In practical terms, this is not an open competition for nonprofits or local entities; it is intended for the governmental jurisdictions that receive WIOA Title I formula funds and administer statewide workforce systems. ETA anticipated 57 awards, consistent with providing separate allotments across states, territories, and outlying areas.
To receive the Dislocated Worker allotment, recipients were instructed to submit an electronically signed SF-424 (Application for Federal Assistance) through Grants.gov. The application amount must match the specified allotment amounts referenced in Attachment H of Training and Employment Guidance Letter (TEGL) No. 16-17, which is the document ETA uses to publish and document the official allocation figures. In other words, the "application" is largely an administrative step confirming acceptance of the predetermined formula amount, rather than a proposal-based application that is scored or ranked.
The posting was created on May 23, 2018, with an application deadline of June 8, 2018. Applications had to be received by 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the closing date. ETA indicated it would award PY 2018 WIOA Dislocated Worker funds as soon as the funds were available for obligation and as SF-424 submissions were received, meaning awards could be processed on a rolling administrative basis once federal budget authority and internal obligational steps were in place.
In terms of funding scale, the opportunity lists an award ceiling of $26,983,853, which reflects an upper bound amount associated with an award under this announcement; however, because this is a formula allotment program, actual award amounts are determined by the published allotment tables rather than by applicant budgets or negotiated scopes. Overall, the notice is best understood as the official procedural vehicle for releasing PY 2018 Dislocated Worker formula dollars to the established governmental recipients that operate WIOA-funded services for workers who have lost jobs due to layoffs, closures, or other dislocation events.Apply for ETA TEGL PY FY DW 2018
