The Grantsmanship Training Center will conduct a grant-writing workshop at the UNM Continuing Education Conference Center to train grant writers.  The five-day "Grantsmanship Training Program" will be offered Monday-Friday, Oct. 28 - Nov. 1. The training is a full day event from 8:30 a.m. – 5:30 p.m. The program fee is $899 and registration is limited. Tuition remission is available for this workshop.

The Grantsmanship Center’s "Grantsmanship Training Program" has a proven record of benefits, both for newcomers to the field and for experienced grant seekers. Participants will practice using The Grantsmanship Center’s groundbreaking approach to planning programs and writing grant proposals and will leave with a wealth of useful, up-to-date, practical information—including a training manual, handouts and ideas that can be put to work immediately.

The program will teach the characteristics and practices of different funders—government, foundation and corporate—and how to track down the most appropriate funding sources for specific programs. As part of the workshop, participants will work in teams, select an actual grant and write a real proposal. They will learn to think like a grant-maker, reviewing other proposals to see what works and what doesn’t.

Interested participants may contact Loree Nalin, program coordinator, at 277-6025 or lnalin@unm.edu.  Early enrollment is encouraged as TGCI workshops often fill to capacity.
