Grant Writing for Municipal Officials 

The availability of grant funds is unprecedented for New Jersey municipalities. Successful grant writing requires skills that municipal officials and staff may not have had to utilize before now. This half-day course will review grant writing techniques and tips of the trade.

Attendees will learn about tools to use in preparing grant application and how to successfully obtain and use public sector funding.  The target audience is  local municipal staff or community based organizations.
