The National Institute of Corrections (NIC) is soliciting proposals from organizations, groups, or individuals to enter into a cooperative agreement with NIC for up to three years, pending funding availability each year, beginning September 1, 2014, and continuing through fiscal years 2015 and 201 6.

Through this cooperative agreement, funds will be made available for the production of a minimum of six live Internet broadcasts each year of the agreement.

NIC will accept proposals for the creative use of 18 broadcast hours each year, using either NICÂ’s traditional 3-hour long-form talk show broadcast format or other suggested formats for this work.

All of the proposed Internet programs are 3-hour and/or 2-day, 6-hour (3 hours each day) interactive training broadcasts, featuring on- and off-air activities broadcast nationwide.

This agreement also includes the production of pre-recorded video clips and screen captures that will enhance the instructional value of the broadcast or otherwise enhance the “look and feel” of visual materials, the set, or other items to be used during the broadcast.

This project will be a collaborative venture with the NIC Academy Division.
