Next, we will provide you with proven strategic approaches as guidance for each step. The combination of these components will differentiate your proposal from your competitors.

In this training, you will learn how to develop a compelling, well-written proposal, and multiple strategies for locating funding opportunities for your current and future needs.

One of the most frustrating elements of grant writing is that funders often don’t share their “bottom-line” requirement for funding a proposal. The average grant writer is left with using his or her best judgment to make this determination. Unless you have served on a grant review panel this information is a mystery. The good news is we have developed a process to assist you!

We will share a technique that will enable you to identify this unstated, core, funder requirement. Understanding this simple technique will enable you to know with greater certainty what the funder is really seeking. More importantly, it enables you to plan, design and tailor your proposal to meet this critical component.
