Supplementary Information
BUDGET INFORMATION
Federal funds under the Fulbright-Hays Group Projects Abroad program are provided only for foreign expenses. Current maintenance allowances for project participants are contained on pages D11-D19. Rules establishing these rates are found in Section 664.4 of the Regulations. Since all funded project activities occur in foreign countries, no indirect charges are paid under the program.
Applicants are requested to provide an itemized budget, showing both Federal funds and non-Federal contributions. Applicants under the advanced overseas intensive language category must provide an itemized budget for each year for the total grant period requested. The Department will negotiate at the time of the initial award the funding levels for each year of the grant award.
PERFORMANCE REPORT
The grantee must submit an annual performance report in accordance with the Department of Education General Administrative Regulations (EDGAR 34 CFR, Sec. 75.118.) The performance report should include the most current performance and financial expenditure information. If a grantee fails to submit performance reports that meet the requirements in the 34 Code of the Federal Regulations (34 CFR, Sections 74.82, 75.590, 75.720, and 80.40, the Secretary may deny continued funding for the project.
In August 2004, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approved the Evaluation of Exchange, Language, International and Area Studies (EELIAS) electronic reporting system. The online system enables the Office of International Education and Graduate Programs Service (IEGPS) to collect comparable performance information and project data for the fourteen Title VI and Fulbright-Hays programs it administers.
How does this affect you, the applicant? If your project is awarded in FY 2005 under the Fulbright-Hays Group Projects Abroad program grant, you will be required to submit your project performance report using the EELIAS system. The performance report will assist IEGPS program officers in determining whether or not the Advanced Overseas Intensive Language project is making substantial progress toward meeting the approved project objectives and whether or not a continuation award is in the best interest of the federal government.
The EELIAS reporting instrument includes sections for grantees to input data and information that respond to the Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA) to assess overall program performance.
AMENDMENTS
To request a change or amendment, explain the reason for the changes.
If the scope or objectives have changed or an extension of time is necessary, explain the circumstances and justify. (EDGAR-Subpart L)

Deadlines assure all applicants that they will be treated fairly and equally, without last minute haste.
For these reasons, ED must set strict deadlines for grant applications. Prospective applicants can avoid disappointment if they understand that
Failure to meet a deadline will mean that an applicant will be rejected
without any consideration whatever.
The rules, including the deadline, for applying for each grant are published, individually, in the Federal Register. A one-year subscription to the Register may be obtained by sending $340.00 to: Superintendent of Documents, U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, D.C. 20402-9371.

Offerors are advised to be guided solely by the contents of the CBD synopsis and the instructions contained in the RFP. Questions regarding the submission of offers should be addressed to the Contracting Specialist identified on the face page of the RFP.

P. 32
The Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA)
What is GPRA?
The Government Performance and Results Act of 1993 (GPRA) is a straightforward statute that requires all federal agencies to manage their activities with attention to the consequences of those activities. Each agency is to clearly state what it intends to accomplish, identify the resources required, and periodically report their progress to the Congress. In so doing, it is expected that the GPRA will contribute to improvements in accountability for the expenditures of public funds, improve congressional decision-making through more objective information on the effectiveness of federal programs, and promote a new government focus on results, service delivery, and customer satisfaction.
How has the Department of Education Responded to the GPRA Requirements?
As required by GPRA, the Department of Education has prepared a strategic plan for 2002-2007. This plan reflects the Department’s priorities and integrates them with its mission and program authorities and describes how the Department will work to improve education for all children and adults in the United States. The Department’s goals, as listed in the plan, are:
Goal 1: Create a Culture of Achievement
Goal 2: Improve Student Achievement
Goal 3: Develop Safe Schools and Strong Character
Goal 4: Transform Education into an Evidence-based Field
Goal 5: Enhance the Quality of and Access to Postsecondary and Adult Education
Goal 6: Establish Management Excellence
The performance indicators for the International Education Programs are part of the Department’s plan for meeting Goal 5: Enhance the Quality of and Access to Postsecondary and Adult Education.
What are the Performance Indicators for the International Education Programs?
The Department’s specific goal for the International Education Programs is "to meet the nation's security and economic needs through the development and maintenance of a national capacity in foreign languages, and area and international studies.” The Department has established objectives and performance indicators for the Title VI and Fulbright-Hays programs and data are collected through the Evaluation of Exchange, Language, Area and International Studies (EELIAS) performance reporting system. The indicators for the International Education Programs focus on the following areas: (1) expansion of critical languages; (2) employment in field; and (3) improved language competency.
All grantees are required to submit annual performance reports through EELIAS that describe the projects’ accomplishments and provide GPRA data. Data collected from each of the fourteen International Education Programs are used to assess the success of meeting the performance objectives.
