Advanced Nursing Education Workforce grants — CFDA 93.247 totals

The ADVANCED NURSING EDUCATION WORKFORCE GRANT PROGRAM, CFDA 93.247, shows $536.1M in USAspending.gov obligations. SpendingVault’s extract lists 230 awards, 164 recipients, and 47 states. The $536.1M is an assistance-award commitment total, not Treasury outlays and not a count of nurses graduated. This page does not offer medical or career advice. Specialty-track enrollment is also outside the extract.

Key figures

  • CFDA 93.247 shows $536.1M in USAspending obligations, not outlays or nurses hired.
  • The extract lists 230 awards and 164 recipients.
  • 47 states appear; the packet has no per-state dollar split.
  • This listing is a training grant line, not a combined health-workforce budget.

What $536.1M on CFDA 93.247 records

USAspending.gov attaches $536.1M in obligations to assistance awards tagged 93.247. SpendingVault reprints that catalog total. The listing title names an advanced nursing education workforce grant program. Workforce, as a word in the title, does not come with a headcount of practicing nurses in this extract. The $536.1M is commitments on 230 awards, not a placement census.

No fiscal year is supplied. Other nursing and health-workforce listings exist. Adding this $536.1M to a different training CFDA would mix catalog numbers. Match the assistance-listing number on any school of nursing notice before comparing this extract to a campus budget. Stipend rules and specialty tracks are not in the packet.

Two hundred thirty awards at this dollar scale is a mid-volume training file. The packet has no median award size. Do not divide $536.1M by 230 and publish the quotient as a typical workforce grant. Amount-sort on the hub is the check. Degree level and clinical-site type are not in the packet.

230 awards on 164 nursing-education recipients

One hundred sixty-four recipients hold 230 awards. That pattern is compatible with schools holding more than one award or modification. The packet does not classify the 164 as universities, health systems, or other eligible entities. Award count is a row count; recipient count is distinct identifiers, not a count of students or preceptors.

A 164-name list is large enough that search on the program hub helps. Repeat identifiers mean the same organization received more than one recorded award. Repeat appearance is not a finding about program quality. Enrollment, pass rates, and rural-placement shares are not in this extract.

47 states on the nursing-workforce extract

The file counts 47 states. That is wide coverage without claiming every jurisdiction in a 50-plus extract. The packet does not name the 47 or split the $536.1M among them. Place of performance for a university award is often the campus state even when clinical rotations occur elsewhere. This packet does not say which location field fed the count.

Forty-seven states is a coverage statistic, not a nurse-shortage map. Missing states are not listed, so their absence is not explained here. Use award-level place fields on the hub if a particular campus state is the question. This rollup will not rank jurisdictions by vacancy rate.

Workforce-grant obligations are not payroll outlays

Hospital wage surveys, state loan-repayment programs, and Medicare graduate-nursing payments — if a reader has seen them elsewhere — are different ledgers. CFDA 93.247’s $536.1M is USAspending assistance-award obligations on this training listing. Mixing those sources into $536.1M would build a homemade “all nursing workforce” figure the packet does not support.

Outlays are payments. Obligations are commitments. Training grants can draw on an academic calendar that does not match the obligation date. This extract does not report outlays or graduates. Cite $536.1M as recorded commitments on 230 awards. Do not describe the sum as salaries already paid to trainees. Keep training dollars on 93.247 when citing this page.

Not a combined health-workforce catalog

Other health-professions listings can sit near 93.247 on the all-programs index because their obligation totals occupy a similar band. Similar scale is not similar training pipeline. Do not add this $536.1M to a neighboring CFDA. Keep the Advanced Nursing Education Workforce Grant Program on its own catalog row.

Opening the 93.247 table

The Advanced Nursing Education Workforce program page lists the 230 awards and 164 recipients behind $536.1M. Filter by location if a state is the question; the 47-state count will not name them. Agency pages are a different USAspending cut; this packet does not name the awarding agency, so the $536.1M stays on the CFDA card. Licensure-exam dashboards remain a different file than this obligation rollup. Cite $536.1M only as the CFDA 93.247 obligation total on SpendingVault. Preceptor-hour logs are not this CFDA rollup.
