Text Box: We offer in-depth, hands-on training for your board members, staff, and others interested in learning more about the grantseeking process. Participants learn practical techniques to use immediately once they return to their offices. Our workshops target grantseekers at different levels of professional development including novice, intermediate, and advanced. Over the years, we have shared our successful grantseeking techniques with more than 10,000 people! Our workshop and conference materials blend the best of a strong academic program with a practical approach to grantseeking to provide an exceptional learning opportunity for all. All workshops and conference sessions include copies of presentation materials, lively discussions, and hands-on exercises. You can join us at many of our upcoming workshops and conferences hosted by local, regional, and national associations. Visit our workshop and conference schedule pages for more information.
