 (http://www.niehs.nih.gov)

The National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) is announcing 
the availability of limited support for administrative supplements to active 
NIEHS Worker Education and Training Program SBIR funded awardees that can 
demonstrate capacity to build upon existing e-learning activities related to 
Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD) activities. Such activities must build upon 
the scope of activities currently funded. Eligible Worker Education and 
Training Program SBIR awardees may apply for supplemental funding to build 
upon E-learning products that support the training of skilled support 
personnel (SSP) involved in responses to WMD incidents. SSP include a wide 
range of job categories such as laborers, operating engineers, carpenters, 
and utility workers. Training for SSP should be based upon a foundation of 
Hazardous Waste Operations and Emergency Response Standard training with 
refresher training used as one vehicle to update and get new information out 
to SSP. The NIEHS will commit approximately $228,305 in SBIR funds to fund 
one to two supplemental awards. An applicant may request support for up to 12 
months and budget up to $228,305 in total costs. The actual number of awards 
is contingent upon the receipt of a sufficient number of meritorious 
applications.
