Writing solid and competitive grant proposals is critical to the success of your grant writing efforts. This course will provide instruction on the 12 components of a winning grant proposal (cover letter, abstract, background, needs statement, project description, etc.). Dr. Sliger will discuss each component in detail.

Many grant proposals lose points or are not funded because of deficiencies in the evaluation component of the grant. This course will provide an understanding of program/project evaluation for writing winning grant proposals. Two different types of evaluation (funders want to see both in a grant proposal) will be discussed, and a program/project evaluation model will be presented.

All grants must include a well-prepared budget. Funders usually have more questions about budgets (how the money will be spent) than any other grant component. This course will instruct on preparing program/project budgets, appropriate budget formats, and terminology.

Knowing how and to whom to submit your grant proposal is crucial to your success as a grant writer. This webinar provides participants with the knowledge and skills to conduct a funding search like the “pros.” Both print and online resources will be discussed.

This course will provide numerous valuable tips to help ensure that grant proposals are as successful as possible. With his 30+ years of grant writing experience, Dr. Sliger knows what funders look for in a grant proposal (he will let you in on his secrets). In addition to dozens of tips and suggestions, you will learn to “kick your chances up a notch.”

Grant writers are among the most in-demand consulting professionals today. Most grant writers work as independent contractors, full-time or part-time development officers, or freelancers. Because of the increasing demand for funding sources, nonprofit agencies always seek help identifying these sources and pursuing grant writing projects. Almost every one of the thousands of nonprofits in the United States needs the services of a grant writer. There is no better time to start your own grant-writing business. This course will include the following topics: how to establish your own business, advertising, obtaining clients, lessons learned, part-time/full-time income potential, etc.

Dr. Sliger is an outstanding teacher and a successful grant writer. As a participant, you can be confident that you are learning from one of the best. Many participants have told Dr. Sliger that his classes are the best and the most cost-effective.
