Registration
No cost to register. However, if you do not attend at least one session, you will be charged $50 for the Handbook.
Register here by Friday, Sept. 22. A Zoom link will be sent to all registrants prior to the seminar.
Registration includes one electronic copy of the Handbook for Planning and Writing Successful Grant Proposals. The Handbook helps you through the grant writing process, starting with the early stages of planning your project. It contains clear and flexible solutions to communicating your idea clearly to the reviewer. The Handbook provides a heavily footnoted and occasionally humorous guide to turning your idea into a clear grant proposal.
