The Grant Institute's Grants 101 Course is an intensive and detailed introdu=
ction to the process, structure, and skill of professional proposal writing.=
This course is characterized by its ability to act as a thorough overview, =
introduction, and refresher at the same time. In this course, participants w=
ill learn the entire proposal writing process and complete the course with a=
solid understanding of not only the ideal proposal structure, but a holisti=
c understanding of the essential factors,=20
which determine whether or not a program gets funded. Through the completion=
of interactive exercises and activities, participants will complement exper=
t lectures by putting proven techniques into practice. This course is design=
ed for both the beginner looking for a thorough introduction and the interme=
diate looking for a refresher course that will strengthen their grant acquis=
ition skills. This class, simply put, is designed to get results by creating=
professional grant proposal writers.=20

Designed for both the novice and experienced grant writer, this course will =
make each student an overall proposal writing specialist. In addition to tea=

At its foundation, this course will address the basics of foundation, corpor=
ation, and government grant research. However, this course will teach a stra=
tegic funding research approach that encourages students to see research not=
as something they do before they write a proposal, but as an integrated par=
t of the grant seeking process. Students will be exposed to online and datab=
ase research tools, as well as publications and directories that contain inf=
