According to Sandra Strickland, program coordinator, this course will equip students with the skills and tools they need to write effective grants.  Students will learn how to raise needed funds by discovering how and where to look for potential funders who are a good match for an organization.  In addition, students will learn how to network and develop true partnerships with a variety of funders, how to organize a successful grant writing campaign and how to put together a complete proposal package.

This online course is geared to non-profit organizations, schools, religious institutions and municipalities seeking grants from foundation, corporate, government and individual donors.
