Understanding Grant Guidelines &
Responding to Requests for Proposals
Careful review and response to grant guidelines are critical elements to winning a grant award. This course provides greater detail about the grant proposal submission process. It covers the basics such as: organizing grant documents, determining whether and how to respond to a grant request for proposal, reading and reviewing grant guidelines, forming organizational talking points, delegating grant writing tasks to a team and more. The course covers weighted review criteria popular with grant makers today and how to address exactly the points presented. Participants will walk away with a criteria checklist and process that can be applied to any guidelines or RFP process.
Consider attending this workshop if you plan on applying for one of the Connecticut State Library's LSTA grants, which will be due in early April 2018.
