This widely acclaimed seminar comprehensively addresses both practical and conceptual aspects that are important to the proposal-writing process. It is designed for faculty members and administrative staff who have had some exposure to writing grant applications, either through training/mentoring or personal experience. The program can be designed to meet the needs of the audience, i.e., to emphasize the granting agencies that are of greatest interest to its members, including federal, private, and/or industrial sources. Emphasis is given to such things as idea development, identification of the most appropriate granting agency, how to write for reviewers, and tips and strategies that are of proven value in presenting an applicant's case to reviewers. Participants are taught to organize their presentations into a linear progression of logic, which leads reviewers through their applications. It is stressed that applicants are writing for two different audiences--the assigned reviewers, who have read the application in its entirety, and those who have read little, if anything, before the review meeting. Strategies designed to develop advocacy and a fundable priority score from both audiences are presented.
The fee for the seminar is $75. Registration is online Three workbooks are available. Select the appropriate one from these choices:
1) The NIH edition allows the applicant to: (i) create a bullet outline as the first step in developing the template or master plan for the rest of the Research Plan, and (ii) set up a writing schedule for a grant to the NIH.
2) The NSF edition allows the user to: (i) set up a writing schedule, and (ii) create a bullet outline that guides preparation of the master plan for the Project Description for a grant to the NSF.
3) The Successful Proposals to Any Agency edition walks the applicant through the preparation of each section and is meant to be complemented by the specific instructions of the agency that is being targeted.
