The Community College Administrator Program’s (CCAP) goal is to advance U.S. global leadership in vocational-technical education, support systemic education policy change in priority countries, and foster strategic partnerships that advance U.S. interests in trade and commerce. By showcasing America’s specialized approach to vocational-technical education, CCAP will help reduce reliance on foreign aid and cultivate trade and business relationships that strengthen U.S. supply chains and economic interests. CCAP will introduce approximately 20 foreign higher education officials and senior administrators to the U.S. community college model through a maximum six-week program, to be implemented approximately between October 2026 and June 2027. The program consists of a virtual exchange and up to four weeks of in-person programming in the United States, featuring site visits, industry engagement, and a one-week executive dialogue. Cohorts include government or high-level officials with higher education planning responsibilities and senior administrators from post-secondary vocational and technical institutions, selected from one or more countries. The program will examine the key tenets of community college administration and cutting-edge programs at U.S. community colleges that address local educational and labor market needs. In support of U.S. foreign policy, the program will build participant higher education policy knowledge regarding community college administration in key areas including, but not limited to, developing talent pipelines, curriculum development, program assessment, finance and fundraising, and private sector partnerships. The successful applicant will provide responsive and flexible programming and exhibit an ability to tailor activities to U.S. priorities for vocational-technical education that leads to measurable positive policy change.

The National Leadership Grants for Libraries Program (NLG-L) supports projects that address critical needs of the library and archives fields and have the potential to advance practice and strengthen library and archival services for the American public. Successful proposals will generate results such as new models, tools, research findings, services, practices, and/or alliances that can be widely used, adapted, scaled, or replicated to extend and leverage the benefits of federal investment.

Specifically, the goals for this program are to generate projects of far-reaching impact that: • Build the workforce and institutional capacity for managing the national information infrastructure and serving the information and education needs of the public. • Build the capacity of libraries and archives to lead and contribute to efforts that improve community well-being and strengthen civic engagement. • Improve the ability of libraries and archives to provide broad access to and use of information and collections with emphasis on collaboration to avoid duplication and maximize reach. • Strengthen the ability of libraries to provide services to affected communities in the event of an emergency or disaster. • Strengthen the ability of libraries, archives, and museums to work collaboratively for the benefit of the communities they serve. Throughout its work, IMLS places importance on diversity, equity, and inclusion. This may be reflected in an IMLS-funded project in a wide range of ways, including efforts to serve individuals of diverse geographic, cultural, and socioeconomic backgrounds; individuals with disabilities; individuals with limited functional literacy or information skills; individuals having difficulty using a library or museum; and underserved urban and rural communities, including children from families with incomes below the poverty line.
