Intoduction
The Cancer Education Grants Program (CEGP) is a flexible, curriculum-driven program aimed at developing and sustaining innovative and educational approaches that ultimately will have an impact on reducing cancer incidence, mortality and morbidity, as well as improving the quality of life of cancer patients.
Any not-for-profit or for-profit organization engaged in health-related education research, or training and located in the United States may apply for the CEGP. Applicants may request up to five years of support.
The Program provides up to five years of funding up to $300,000 per year in direct costs.

NCI Special Notes
This is an NCI-specific program announcement. For all of the policies governing
this award mechanism, refer to the Program Announcement:
PAR-08-120 CANCER EDUCATION GRANTS PROGRAM (R25E) 1.
Under the NIH
Data Sharing Policy 2, grantees are expected to engage in a timely
release of final data sets that have been generated with NIH support for use by
other researchers, provide a Data Sharing Plan that will achieve this
objective, OR state why data sharing is not possible or appropriate. No Data
Sharing Plan is required for the R25E mechanism because it supports education,
rather than, a research grant. It supports stipends and other ancillary costs
for individual trainees, but it does not provide support for the generation of
research data, directly. With regard to the data generated by education program
participants working in research environments funded by NIH research grants, it
is the responsibility of the institutions that are awarded these research
grants to share the data and provide acceptable Data Sharing Plans to the NIH
as part of the research application.

Peer Review Process
Upon receipt, competing applications will be reviewed both by the Center for Scientific Review (CSR) and the National Cancer Institute (NCI) for completeness and for conformance to all eligibility requirements and special provisions and requirements. Incomplete applications will be returned to the applicant without further consideration.
Those applications judged to be complete and eligible will be evaluated, according to the review criteria listed in the Program Announcement by a peer review group convened by the Division of Extramural Activities of the NCI. A second level of review by the will be conducted by the National Cancer Advisory Board that will ensure that the application meets the broad program needs and priorities of the NCI and the National Cancer Program before an award can be made.
For review criteria for the R25E grant mechanism, see the REVIEW CRITERIA section of the Program Announcement:
PAR-08-120 CANCER EDUCATION GRANTS PROGRAM (R25E) 1.
