Upcoming Events and Workshops

Are you interested in finding open grants but really don’t understand how they fit, what options are out there, and when they make sense to pursue – or almost even importantly – when not to? If so, we can help! Our two-day course will demystify the world of grant funding. Not everyone either wants to or can afford to pay for grant writing services, so they do not take advantage of available opportunities. This course will help you better understand major application components and put you on the right track for submitting successful applications to secure funding for your business.

After our two-day course you will be able to:
-          Understand why and when to use grant funds.
-          Effectively and efficiently search for grants.
-          Determine eligibility and grant feasibility for project success.
-          Complete any basic grant by learning major application components.
