Important Information for Grant Funding Applicants
The application process for grant funded Instructor Training is designed to promote a fair and thorough review of all applicants. Below are some key details to keep in mind as you complete your application.
Pilot Program: Revised Grant Funding Process
This scholarship application is part of a newly revised grant funding process to better ensure we are serving prioritized communities effectively. This will be the first application review (Fall 2024) under the new process. Moving forward, the application cycle will open two times per year, each with a 30-day window to complete your submission.

Please note that we cannot guarantee everyone will receive grant funding, as each cycle will be specific to the available grant funds, which are very limited. Additionally, we will no longer offer waitlists for grant-funded training spots between application cycles. Therefore, it is best practice to save your application responses for potential resubmission in future cycles.
Application Evaluation: Please review the evaluation criteria and justifications to help you prepare for your application.
- Objective Scoring: The majority of your application will be scored based on your responses to specific questions. This scoring is automatic and awarded points change between cycles based on program and funder goals.
- Subjective Review: While many questions will be scored objectively, there are also open-ended questions that will be scored based on the answers provided. These questions allow you to express your unique perspective, and we encourage you to be thoughtful and thorough in your responses.
- Anonymized Review Process: We will anonymize responses during the review process. Reviewers will not have access to any identifying information outside of what you share in your open-ended responses.
Application Tips:
- Take your time to craft your answers, particularly for the open-ended questions. Make sure your responses stay within the given word limits.
- Prepare Responses in Advance: We recommend writing your answers in a separate document (such as Word or Google Docs) before pasting them into the online application form. This will allow you to check your word count, proofread, and ensure clarity before submitting.
Application Deadline:
Please ensure that you submit your completed application no later than December 8th. Late applications will not be accepted.
If you have any questions during the application process, please contact our support team at MHFAtraining@mhamd.org. Good luck, and we look forward to reviewing your application!
