K-18 Census Solicitation - Released by The Language Flagship
Dear Potential Applicant:
The Institute of International Education (IIE) is pleased to provide you
with application materials for the development of a comprehensive survey of
foreign language offerings and foreign language enrollments in the United
States.
Through this solicitation, The Language Flagship is seeking proposals to
develop and conduct a comprehensive survey of U.S. foreign language
enrollments for both K-12 and higher education institutions. This data is
needed for the expansion of program recruitment and practices in The
Language Flagship and for the expansion and dissemination of Flagship K-12
language initiatives. It is also needed to support planning and
recruitment for National Security Education Program (NSEP) pipeline
programs such as ROTC Project Global Officers (Project GO) and other
initiatives.
The Language Flagship is a major initiative of the National Security
Education Program, which was created by Congress in 1991 to address the
need to increase the ability of Americans to communicate and compete
globally by knowing languages and cultures of other countries. NSEP
embodies a recognition that the scope of national security has expanded to
include not only the traditional concerns of protecting and promoting
American well-being, but also the new challenges of a global society.
The Language Flagship seeks to change the way Americans learn languages
through a groundbreaking approach to language education for undergraduate
students. The Language Flagship graduates students who will take their
place among the next generation of global professionals, commanding a
superior level of proficiency in one of many languages critical to U.S.
competitiveness and security. IIE serves as the administrative agent for
The Language Flagship and considers it a distinct pleasure to take part in
this important effort.
Attached please find a copy of the project and application guidelines for
this solicitation (also available online
here<http://www.thelanguageflagship.org/content/funding>).
We ask that you share this information with colleagues and any other
individuals or entities that may be interested in this opportunity.
*PLEASE NOTE THAT THE DEADLINE FOR THE RECEIPT OF PROPOSALS IS MARCH 20,
2014*.
We encourage you to visit http://www.thelanguageflagship.org for additional

Sincerely,
The Language Flagship
