Alex -
I went onto the site.  For this particular workshop, there is not yet a
location.  No faculty are listed.  No names on the site that I can
find.  Anyone?

If you're interested, you can go to Palm Springs at the end of April and
spend $599 to learn about the Fundamentals of Real Estate Investment,
offered by this same group.

Best,
Betty

>
> The **Professional Grant Proposal Writing Workshop*** * is a hands-on,
> intensive session that leads participants through the entire grant
> proposal and funding research processes. Through an intense two day
> workshop, participants will receive an overview of program planning
> basics along with advanced writing techniques to develop your winning
> proposal. This results-based workshop allows each student to walk out
> with a thorough proposal outline, completed worksheets necessary for
> proposal submission, and a starting collection of publications and
> resources to build your development library. This course is designed
> to provide your organization with the competitive advantage necessary
> in our modern grants award environment.
>
>
>
> The Professional Grant Proposal Writing Workshop will cover the
> following during the two day workshop:
>
> (1) Fundamentals of Program Planning
>
> This session will teach professional program development essentials
> and program evaluation. While most grantsmanship  "workshops" treat
> program development and evaluation as separate from the writing of a
> proposal, this class will teach students the relationship between
> overall program planning and proposal writing.
>
> (2) Strategic Funding Research
>
> At its foundation, this session will address the basics of foundation,
> corporation, and government grant research. However, this course will
> emphasize a strategic funding research approach that encourages
> writers to see research not as something they do before they write a
> proposal, but as an integrated part of the grant  seeking process.
> Students will be exposed to online and database research tools, as
> well as publications and directories that contain information about
> foundation, corporation, and government grant opportunities. Focusing
> on funding sources and basic social science research, this course
> teaches students how to use research as part of a strategic grant
> acquisition effort.
>
>
>
> (3) Professional Proposal Writing
>
> Designed to obtain tangible results, this session will make each
> student an overall proposal writing  specialist. In addition to
> teaching the basic components of a grant proposal, successful
> approaches, and the do's and don'ts of grant writing, this session is
> infused with expert principles that will lead to a mastery of the
> process. Strategy resides at the forefront of this session's intent to
> illustrate grant  writing as an integrated, multidimensional, and
> dynamic endeavor. Each student will learn to
> stop writing the grant and to start writing the story. Ultimately,
> this session will conclude with a completed proposal outline.
