This two-part virtual workshop series will review the basics of an effective grant proposal, the elements necessary to create a project budget, and the best ways to find a fit with a potential funder. Lectures, interactive exercises, take-home assignments, and useful resources will help enhance the skill of beginning writers and seasoned professionals.
Attendees will receive instruction on creating a letter of inquiry, and will get expert suggestions and advice from experienced professionals.
