Quick View AI Integration in Community Colleges
Summary
Section 381.165 of House Bill 96 of the 136th General Assembly directed the Chancellor to create the Artificial Intelligence Integration in Community Colleges Pilot Grant Program to provide financial assistance to community colleges to implement artificial intelligence initiatives. The Ohio Department of Higher Education (“ODHE”) is releasing this RFP to solicit proposals from eligible respondents.
This RFP is open to Ohio community colleges as defined in Ohio Revised Code 3333.168: “Community college” means a community college established under Chapter 3354, a technical college established under Chapter 3357, or a state community college established under Chapter 3358 of the Revised Code”.
While institutions that received an FY26 AI Integration in Community College grant are eligible to apply, the application review process for this RFP will prioritize institutions that have not previously received AI Integration in Community Colleges grant funding.
Eligible community colleges may apply individually or as a consortium.
