Content

This full-day seminar provides concrete, practical guidance for preparing successful grant proposals. Participants will learn how to organize proposals, find and use pertinent facts and data, and build compelling cases to effectively “sell” your proposal. We will discuss strategies to fully meet common proposal requirements, the importance of appearance, how to get excellent letters of support, and how to search for grant opportunities. You will learn to avoid common errors that keep many applications from being funded. Participants are welcome to come with actual proposal ideas; we will draw from these to work on “proposal concept papers” in small groups.
