Opportunity Information: Apply for 22 574
The National Science Foundation (NSF) funding opportunity titled "Training-based Workforce Development for Advanced Cyberinfrastructure" (often referred to as the CyberTraining program) supports projects that strengthen the U.S. research workforce in the effective creation, use, and support of advanced cyberinfrastructure (CI). The overall purpose is to grow national capacity for CI-enabled science and engineering research and education in ways that can accelerate fundamental discoveries while also contributing to U.S. economic competitiveness and national security. In this context, "advanced CI" is defined broadly and includes high-end computing, large-scale data management and analytics, and the networking and security capabilities needed to operate and use large, complex research systems.
The solicitation is organized around three main workforce development goals. First, it aims to drive broader adoption of CI tools, methods, and resources across the research community so more researchers can take advantage of advanced computing and data capabilities and, over time, help lead the development of new CI themselves. Second, it focuses on education and curriculum: integrating core CI literacy and more advanced, discipline-appropriate computational and data-driven skills into undergraduate and graduate teaching materials and training pathways. Third, it targets the professional workforce that keeps research CI running day to day by building communities of CI professional staff who can deploy and manage CI, provide collaborative support to researchers, and establish clearer career paths that work across institutions and science and engineering disciplines.
To address these goals, NSF is looking for innovative and scalable approaches to training and education, including new or improved curriculum and instructional materials, as well as efforts that more deeply embed CI professionals in the research enterprise. The program is designed to serve learners and practitioners across career stages, from postsecondary students to active researchers and dedicated CI professionals. A consistent emphasis throughout the solicitation is that funded outputs should be widely usable by the community, respond to clearly defined needs or bottlenecks, and lead to measurable improvements in how prepared researchers and institutions are to conduct CI-enabled research in both the short and long term.
Broadening participation is a central priority. The solicitation explicitly encourages projects that expand CI access and adoption into a wider range of science and engineering fields and across more types of institutions. It also seeks proposals that highlight and strengthen the role of CI professionals as valued contributors to research outcomes. In addition, projects are expected to make effective use of talent from groups that are underrepresented in these areas, with an overall goal of making advanced CI training and support more equitable and more widely distributed.
NSF offers three project classes under this opportunity, each suited to different scopes of work. Pilot Projects support early-stage or proof-of-concept efforts, with budgets up to $300,000 total and durations up to two years. Implementation Projects support more mature efforts with broader impact; they come in Small (up to $500,000 total) and Medium (up to $1,000,000 total) versions, with durations up to four years. CI Professional (CIP) Projects are specifically designed to address the third goal focused on CI professional staff communities and career pathways; these projects support staffing up to two full-time equivalents (FTEs) per institution and up to four FTEs total, with durations up to five years. Pilot and Implementation proposals may focus on one or both of the first two goals (adoption and curriculum/training), while CIP proposals must address the professional staff goal.
The program is led by NSF's Office of Advanced Cyberinfrastructure (OAC) within the Directorate for Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE), with participation from other NSF directorates and divisions. Participation levels and priorities vary across these NSF units, so applicants are encouraged to align their proposals to the relevant programmatic areas of interest. NSF strongly encourages prospective principal investigators to contact the appropriate Cognizant Program Officers in OAC and in any participating directorate or division connected to the intended audience or discipline, ideally at least one month before the deadline, and to list the consulted program officers in the proposal as instructed.
Collaboration between CI expertise and domain science and engineering disciplines is an explicit design feature of the solicitation. Proposals intended for communities in specific science or engineering domains are expected to include leadership with relevant domain expertise, while all proposals must include at least one PI or co-PI with expertise relevant to OAC. This structure is meant to ensure that training content is technically sound, grounded in real research workflows, and positioned for adoption by the communities it is intended to serve.
Key administrative details from the opportunity listing include: Agency: National Science Foundation; Funding instrument: Grant; Opportunity number: 22-574; CFDA numbers: 47.041, 47.049, 47.050, 47.070, 47.075, 47.076; Expected awards: 18; Award ceiling listed: $5,000,000; Original closing date: May 16, 2022; Opportunity category: Discretionary. Eligibility is listed broadly as "Others," with clarification provided in the full solicitation text. Overall, the program is aimed at producing training, curriculum, and professional-support models that can scale, be reused by many institutions and disciplines, and meaningfully improve the national pipeline of people who can use, build, and sustain advanced research cyberinfrastructure.Apply for 22 574
