RE-OPENED for Focus Area A – Career & Technical Education and Work-Based Learning: PLAN Mentor Schools Request for Bids (RFB)

UPDATE: The application period to participate as a PLAN Mentor School is now closed.

The PLAN Mentor School Request for Bids (RFB) application period has been extended for eligible applicants to submit bids for Focus Area A: Career & Technical Education and Work-Based Learning. This Focus Area received fewer than 3 bids by the original deadline. Bids will be accepted for this Focus Area until August 30th.  

The New York State Education Department through the University of the State of New York – Regents Research Fund (USNY-RRF) seeks to engage exemplary Mentor Schools that are systematically implementing an evidence-based approach or model of performance-based learning and assessment (PBLA) that is available to all students enrolled in the school (or, in the case of a BOCES, all students enrolled in the program). The RFB is posted to NYSED’s Applying to Become a PLAN Mentor School webpage. 

All bids are due by midnight August 30, 2024.  

For additional information, please review the full RFB. 

Bidders from the re-opened Focus Area that already submitted an application do not need to re-submit their materials.  

For other Focus Area a sufficient number of applications were received by the original June 28, 2024, deadline and are undergoing reviews. New or revised bids from Focus Areas B and C will not be considered.
