Course Detail: GWMP - Grant Writing and Management for Public Agencies and Non-Profits

From finding the right Notice Of Funding Opportunities through closing out awards, this course will familiarize you with the grant process. Writing grant proposals in the public/non-profit world can be a daunting task but is increasingly important to secure operational funds and ensure organizational continuity. While the course focuses primarily on federal grants we will also discuss other types of grants and how they may differ from federal programs.

This course will provide insight and tips into the three main components of grants. First, we will explore how to best search for opportunities that fit your agency's needs. Second, we will go through the steps of writing a competitive grant proposal. Finally, we will discuss how to manage awards and ensure your agency is successful in achieving deliverables while staying in compliance with funding rules and audits.

Upon completion of the course students should have a better insight in how to target specific grant programs, develop a solid proposal and have better expectations about post-award grant management.
