The CCSF Office of Workforce Development is issuing this Request for Proposals (RFP) to support and strengthen Career Education at CCSF. The RFP linked below provides the background information and procedures for applying for funds for the 2024-25 fiscal year. It combines the application process for two funding streams: Perkins V and the Strong Workforce Program (SWP).

The timeline for the RFP process is as follows:

  • Technical support webinar – February 6, 2024
  • Technology requests due to ITS – February 16, 2024
  • Department and Collaborative applications due – March 8, 2024
  • CTE Allocations Subcommittee meeting – April 2024
  • Funding decisions announced – Mid-May 2024

RFPs will be processed using Survey Monkey Apply (SMApply) again this year.

All proposals requesting computers, software, or other technology must get approval from Information Technology Services (ITS) and may also require approval from the Office of Online Learning and Educational Technology (OLET). This will allow ITS and OLET to ensure that requests meet the relevant technology standards, are in alignment with overarching technology plans, and ensure that the College has sufficient capacity to service any new hardware or software purchased. The purpose of this review is not to assess the efficacy of your proposal, which means you can submit your itemized technology requests for approval while you are developing the rest of your application.
