GRANT/PROPOSAL WRITING

Competition for grants is steadily increasing. This means that your proposal must make an impression on your reviewer and present a strong case for your research. This workshop covers how to grab the reviewers' attention, what the reviewers are looking for, and how to present your research in the most positive light.

This training covers every state of the proposal process from effective preparation techniques, to persuasive language and useful editing tips. By the end of the course participants will possess the skills necessary to write compelling proposals and other technical documents.

This course is ideal for both the novice and seasoned proposal writer. Bring a current proposal (or a possible proposal) and get individualized feedback on how to strengthen the proposal.
