> The Grant Institute
> Grants 101: Professional Grant Proposal Writing Workshop
> will be held at
> West Virginia State University
> Institute, West Virginia
> July 25 - 27, 2007
> 8:00 AM - 5:00 PM
>
> 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.
>
> (1) 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.
>
> (2) 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.
>
> (3) 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.
>
> Registration
> $597.00 tuition includes all materials and certificates.
