Opportunity Information: Apply for SFOP0005662
The FY2019 Workshops for Youth Leaders in English Teaching Program (WYLET) is a U.S. Department of State, Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs (ECA) funding opportunity that supports English language teaching through a structured series of youth leadership workshops. Administered by ECA's Office of Citizen Exchanges, Youth Programs Division, the program is described as multi-phased and is designed to be delivered as three separate workshops held on an annual basis for consecutive cohorts of students. These participants are competitively selected from two ECA-funded academic year high school exchange programs: the Future Leaders Exchange (FLEX) and the Kennedy-Lugar Youth Exchange and Study (YES). A defining feature of the model is that WYLET alumni are included as peer trainers, reinforcing a youth-to-youth training approach and helping sustain program impact across cohorts.
The award is offered as a discretionary cooperative agreement, meaning the selected recipient would be expected to work closely with ECA during implementation rather than operating fully independently. The opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number SFOP0005662; CFDA 19.415) anticipated a single award with a funding ceiling of $450,000. The grant competition was opened on March 15, 2019, with an original application deadline of May 14, 2019.
Historically, the WYLET workshops have been conducted every year since 2013, supported by prior awards made in FY2012 and FY2014. Under this FY2019 competition, and assuming funds remained available, the three workshops supported by the award were planned for Spring 2020, Spring 2021, and Spring 2022. Eligible applicants included U.S. public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, and nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status (with additional eligibility details referenced in the full notice). Overall, the opportunity sought one organization to manage the design and implementation of the annual workshops, tying English teaching skills to leadership development for returning exchange students and leveraging alumni involvement to strengthen continuity and peer learning.Apply for SFOP0005662
