## What the grant funds

The Test Coordinator Training component (EOI-TCT) is designed to provide a centralized, coordinated effort for the development and implementation of a test coordinator training program for fair housing testing coordinators working for organizations participating in HUD"s FHIP Private Enforcement Initiative (PEI) and Fair Housing Organizations Initiative (FHOI) to conduct investigations of violations of the Fair Housing Act and equivalent State of local laws. Training activities must address a variety of testing approaches and structures as well as provide coordinators with the most effective methodologies, technology, and techniques appropriate for productive testing approaches for each testing situation. Under a cooperative agreement, HUD will exercise the right to approve, and have substantial involvement in, all proposed deliverables, as well as the Work Plan or Statement of Work (SOW). For grants and cooperative agreements, HUD will conduct monitoring reviews, request quarterly reports, and approve all proposed deliverables as documented in the applicant"s Work Plan or SOW. Most EOI funds are awarded under grant agreements. However, national funds are awarded under cooperative agreements and remain in Headquarters since the awards have a nationwide impact and therefore require more complex and frequent oversight as well as Departmental approval of deliverables.
