Edge Innovation Fund 2021

The Edge Innovation Fund (EIF) is a grant funding program designed to support innovative and disruptive projects in education. The Fund focuses on enabling organizations to create proof of concept for new approaches that challenge current norms in vocational, technical, and professional education. Opening in September 2021 and remaining open until December 2025, the EIF aims to support projects that make education relevant for the 21st century by addressing the need for a broad and balanced curriculum, high-quality vocational education, and education connected to employers and communities. Projects must be innovative, disruptive, and align with Edge's strategic priorities of making education relevant, supporting broad and flexible education, promoting high-quality professional and vocational education, and connecting education to employers and communities.
