January 9 @ 3:00 pm - 5:00 pm

Event Series Event Series (See All)
$250.00

he Center for Human Development’s Grants Team provides tips on writing grants persuasively, clearly, and successfully. This four-part training series covers the basics of prospect research, introduction to grant writing, and advanced grant writing tips and techniques. Key takeaways from each of these four training sessions include:

Prospect research: Prospecting does not only include casting a broad net. Considerations must be given to efficient and effective research of potential grant resources. This session provides practical advice for getting the best “bang for your buck,” from deciding which search tools to use to preparing curated lists of viable funding opportunities for boards and leaders to vet.

Introduction to grant writing: Especially helpful for novice or early-stage grant-writers, whether full-time or part-time in their positions, this training session covers all steps in the grant preparation process. Building upon the teachings imparted during the prospecting session, this training touches on the grant vetting process; debunks commonly-held grant-writing myths; delves into succinct, clear and persuasive writing techniques; and helps participants construct a plan to develop a solid and fundable grant application.

Advanced grant writing tips: From art to science, this session addresses creative and timely methods for producing cutting-edge deliverables. Trainers will explore techniques, including AI, critically examining the costs and benefits of more expensive grant writing and research tools. Real-world examples will be used to educate and guide more advanced grant-writers in their crafts and businesses.

Grant awards management: So you got the grant; now what? Careful review of available options for managing awards, from pre- to post-awards, will be covered in this important training session. We know that the most successful grant writers are highly organized and, even when this skill set does not come naturally, there are ways of organizing that won’t break the bank or, better yet, curb your writing enthusiasm. We will explore these options and more in this timely training.
