There are two recorded trainings that are available on our website for anyone looking for additional information about the CMPRP. The annual "CMPRP 2025 Update" was a webinar hosted by the NC State Agency on December 17, 2025 and the "CMP New Application Call" was hosted on January 8, 2026 for anyone interested in applying for CMP funding. With the changes to the CMP program, you are encouraged to view these trainings before moving forward with your application.
