There is more to writing grants than finding funding and writing grant proposals. Grant professionals must also learn how to delve into supporting organizational development for grant applicants, coach them in communicating with potential funders, assist with internal and external collaborations with a successful mix of partners, and magically spin-out program design language. In this program, you will become proficient in the proposal and case statement formats used by foundations and government grantmaking agencies. Throughout the course, you will learn about the certification process for grant professionals and write different elements of a complete grant application, culminating in a case statement for your capstone assignment with expert instructor feedback on each element. You will also be prepared for the Grant Professional Certified (GPC) exam offered by the Grant Professionals Certification Institute (GPCI), which has minimum requirements of education and grant experience based on the level of education obtained. The cost of the certification is not included in the program. This program is available with or without a six-hour fully online introduction to Artificial Intelligence (AI-e module). This program is available with or without up to 4 hours of mentoring (arranged through Clover Park Technical College). Speak with program contact to confirm program cost.
