Learn Grant Proposal Development from A to Z! Learn how the grant process works so you can translate the passion for your mission into a compelling argument for funding. This training is ideal for government agencies and non-profit organizations seeking federal, foundation and corporate funding.
During this training, participants research actual funding sources (government, private, and corporate) for their programs. Participants leave the program with a list of appropriate funders and the skills to research funders independently. Participants also learn to identify and create the eight components of a successful proposal by using the Center's model for their own organization or project. Then, working in small teams, participants create real grant proposals for their own or a teammate's organization.
Once proposals are completed, the trainer leads constructive and supportive proposal reviews helping participants understand how a funder will view their work. Participants complete this training with tangible work product, including their own workbook as well as copies of all of the proposals drafted and reviewed in class.
