Grant Writing Workshop Basic to Advanced: Skills, Secrets and Trends

This comprehensive workshop covers the overall strategic plan for writing grants, including: identifying donors, needs statement, mission, goals, objectives, activities, evaluation, key personnel, design of the logic model and budgets.

Bob Marovich, independent grant writer and a professional grant reviewer will engage you in interactive exercises, writing, lectures, and discussions to better understand how to research, write, and develop your specific project.

Great workshop and curriculum targeting both beginners and advanced grant writers by assisting:

  • Beginners to acquire the techniques to research and draft grant-winning proposals for various funders.

 What you can expect to learn:

  • Comprehend the diversity of the funding community
  • Research and identify potential donors
  • Create the right fit with the selected funding agency
  • Address the guidelines of proposals
  • Identify and effectively write the key elements of a proposal
