The Grant Institute's Grants 101 Course is an intensive and detailed 

introduction to the process, structure, and skill of professional
proposal 

writing. This course is characterized by its ability to act as a
thorough 

overview, introduction, and refresher at the same time. In this course, 

participants will learn the entire proposal writing process and complete
the 

course with a solid understanding of not only the ideal proposal
structure, 

but a holistic understanding of the essential factors, which determine 

whether or not a program gets funded. Through the completion of
interactive 

exercises and activities, participants will complement expert lectures
by 

putting proven techniques into practice. This course is designed for
both 

the beginner looking for a thorough introduction and the intermediate 

looking for a refresher course that will strengthen their grant
acquisition 

skills. This class, simply put, is designed to get results by creating 

professional grant proposal writers.

Participants will become competent program planning and proposal writing


professionals after successful completion of the Grants 101 course. In
three 

active and informative days, students will be exposed to the art of 

successful grant writing practices, and led on a journey that ends with
a 

masterful grant proposal.

 

Grants 101 consists of three (3) courses that will be completed during
the 

three-day workshop.

 

FUNDAMENTALS OF PROGRAM PLANNING

 

This course is centered on the belief that "it's all about the program."


This intensive course will teach professional program development
essentials 

and program evaluation. While most grant writing "workshops" treat
program 

development and evaluation as separate from the writing of a proposal,
this 

class will teach students the relationship between overall program
planning 

and grant writing.

 

PROFESSIONAL GRANT WRITING

 

Designed for both the novice and experienced grant writer, this course
will 

make each student an overall proposal writing specialist. In addition to


teaching the basic components of a grant proposal, successful
approaches, 

and the do's and don'ts of grant writing, this course is infused with
expert 

principles that will lead to a mastery of the process. Strategy resides
at 

the forefront of this course's intent to illustrate grant writing as an 

integrated, multidimensional, and dynamic endeavor. Each student will
learn 

to stop writing the grant and to start writing the story. Ultimately,
this 

class will illustrate how each component of the grant proposal
represents an 

opportunity to use proven techniques for generating support.

 

GRANT RESEARCH

 

At its foundation, this course will address the basics of foundation, 

corporation, and government grant research. However, this course will
teach 

a strategic funding research approach that encourages students to see 

research not as something they do before they write a proposal, but as
an 

integrated part of the grant seeking process. Students will be exposed
to 

online and database research tools, as well as publications and
directories 

that contain information about foundation, corporation, and government
grant 

opportunities. Focusing on funding sources and basic social science 

research, this course teaches students how to use research as part of a 

strategic grant acquisition effort.

$597.00 tuition includes all materials and certificates.
