Recipients of the Grant will receive substantial financial and organizational assistance in integrating a portal into existing systems and protocols for online and distance education, SIS software and administrative computing, school and organization web properties, student-based web publishing, wireless and e-commerce initiatives.

In February 2010, the CampusEAI Grant Program was featured as part of the White House Initiative [32] on Historically Black Colleges and Universities. The initiative was established in 1980 by President Jimmy Carter as a federal program to help historically black colleges and universities [[33]] overcome the effects of discriminatory treatment and provide quality education. The program exists today to help strengthen the capacity of historically black colleges and universities to provide excellence in education.
