Course description
Proposals are persuasive documents that are fundamental tools in organizational funding. Creating Winning Proposals looks at sources of funding, types of proposals and how to write proposals that will meet the requirements of funding agencies, including a number of tips and techniques to increase the potential success of your proposals.
This two-day course teaches how to plan and submit a successful funding proposal, including sources of funding and how to select a funder, the steps for a successful proposal, plus ways to evaluate your proposal, and much more. The most successful proposals are going to be those that fulfill the mission and values of your organization and that of the funding agencies as well.
An important aspect of proposal writing is building and maintaining relationships, which is also explored in this workshop.
Like all Velsoft courses, this courseware package includes the following customizable components: an instructor’s guide, PowerPoint slides, quick reference guide, marketing advertorial, and much more.
