There are four possible categories of the two-year award:

Adaptation Awards have a budget totaling $10,000 or less for the 24-month period. These awards support the adaptation and implementation of existing successful innovations into other courses, programs, or disciplines.
Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) Awards have a budget totaling $10,000 or less for the 24-month period. These awards support the collection and analysis of data on the effect of interventions on student learning and success with the purpose of public dissemination and review.
Implementation and Research Awards have a budget of $3,500 or greater, up to the total maximum amount of $25,000 for the 24-month period. These awards support truly innovative, larger projects.
You are strongly encouraged to discuss your idea or draft with the FDC prior to preparing your submission. We can help you make sure that your project is appropriate to this award and can guide you in designing a compelling proposal.
We are looking forward to hearing about your ideas!

The Silent Architect: Billy Schneider Honored with February 2026 Gritty Award
Building the bedrock of UMBC’s digital presence
The Division of Information Technology (DoIT) is excited to
announce that Billy Schneider has been awarded the February 2026 DoIT
Gritty Award! This award recognizes Billy's technical leadership, his knack
for solving problems before they even start, and his deep commitment to making
our digital spaces accessible for everyone.
Billy's work is often behind the scenes, but his influence
is everywhere you look online at the university. As the original architect of
the Sites platform, Billy didn't just build it, he scaled it to support
over 500 websites. He was also instrumental in keeping things stable during our
major redesign partnership with University Communication & Marketing.
What sets Billy apart is a rare "tech-sense", an
ability to anticipate downstream issues before they even materialize. By
proactively shaping solutions and stepping into lead roles with minimal
direction, he has saved the university countless hours of troubleshooting.
Making Accessibility Possible
Most recently, Billy has served as the engine behind the Sites
Digital Accessibility Project. Beyond his day-to-day responsiveness, he
developed a substantial suite of custom WordPress tools specifically for this
initiative. While many of these tools function "under the hood" to
help the project team track and manage remediations, their impact is
university-wide. Thanks to Billy's code, they are able to make sites more
inclusive with minimal disruption to the users.
"Billy has been an essential, key part of the Sites Digital
Accessibility Project rollout and has gone way above and beyond in doing so."
~ Darcie Adams, Website Digital Accessibility Lead
Beyond Technology
Beyond his technical contributions, Billy is the kind of
teammate every organization needs but rarely recognizes. He brings a calm,
collaborative presence to every discussion, generously sharing his knowledge
and helping others think through complex problems. His development skills rank
among the best on campus, yet he wears this expertise lightly, focusing instead
on mentorship and team success. While his work rarely receives visible
recognition, it forms the backbone of a platform that hundreds of clients
depend on daily. Billy delivers exceptional results with professionalism and a
positive attitude that makes everyone around him better.
Congratulations, Billy, on a well-deserved Gritty Award!
About the DoIT Gritty Award
The Gritty Award recognizes outstanding work within the
Division and beyond. Full-time employees, student employees, and teams are all
eligible. Do you know someone going above and beyond? Complete the Gritty
