REMADE announces new deadline for Education and Workforce Development proposals
<![CDATA[
The Reducing Embodied-Energy And Decreasing Emissions (REMADE) Institute, Rochester, New York, has announced an extended deadline for Education and Workforce Development (EWD) projects. Letters of intent and project abstracts for EWD projects are now due by 5 p.m. EST July 1. The original due date was June 3.
"REMADE and our partners are committed to addressing knowledge gaps and training incumbent and emerging workers as the U.S.’s transition to a circular economy accelerates," says Nabil Nasr, CEO of REMADE, a $140 million public-private partnership established by the U.S. Department of Energy.
REMADE issued its fifth request for proposals (RFP) last month, representing $50 million in available funding, including $1 million for Education and Workforce Development proposals. These EWD projects must develop short courses to educate, train and develop incumbent workers in reuse, remanufacturing, recovery and recycling. EWD topics include:
- advanced materials separation technologies;
- chemical recycling of plastics;
- simulation techniques to optimize material use in manufacturing and recycling;
- condition assessment for remanufacturing;
- reverse logistics for remanufacturing;
- cleaning for remanufacturing;
- design for remanufacturing, recycling and/or reuse; and
- systems thinking in material management: benefits and tools.
Companies, universities and organizations that have workforce development projects that might align with the EWD section of REMADE’s RFP can read the detailed RFP here.
The institute says that letters of intent and project abstracts for the RFP’s transformational research, development and demonstration, as well as traditional research and development submissions, are closed as of June 3.
