In Person and Virtual Seminars
Cultivating and Funding
Your Research
This session combines elements of the research leadership program with proposal writing. Participants are first given concrete tools to situate a grant proposal in the context of their larger research arc, including their overall positioning in their field. The remainder of the day covers the nuts and bolts of proposals: the critical first page, the proposal body, and everything else (title, abstract, writing style).
Sessions can be delivered via Zoom as four two-hour sessions (recommended), two four-hour sessions. When delivered in person, they can be delivered in a full day or split afternoon/morning.
Suitable for 10-200 participants online; up to 500 participants in person.
Planning and Writing Successful Grant Proposals
For all audiences, particularly those newer to the process.
Before you begin to write, the critical first page, the body of the proposal, everything else.
Targeted learning outcomes include understanding of the preparation steps before writing, techniques for creating a strong argument for the proposed project, techniques for communicating the approach clearly and understanding how these techniques connect to the process by which a grant proposal is reviewed.
Sessions can be delivered via Zoom as four two-hour sessions (recommended), or two four-hour sessions. When delivered in person, they can be delivered in a full day or split afternoon/morning.
We can provide broad-based training, or sessions for identified subgroups (NIH, NSF Arts and Humanities).
