Write Winning Grants
A full day seminar offered by Dr. David C. Morrison, of Grant Writer’s Seminars and Workshops, LLC
( http://www.grantcentral.com/ )

Wednesday, January 4, 2012
•Pre-registration is required – registration will close November 20, 2011, or when space is filled.
•Lunch will be provided.
•Purchase of an interactive proposal workbook is required for most participants; prices vary by Federal agency. Please see the registration form for further information.

This seminar addresses both practical and conceptual aspects that are important to the proposal-writing process. Emphasis is given to such things as idea development, identification of the most appropriate granting agency, how to write for reviewers, and tips and strategies that are of proven value in presenting an applicant’s case to reviewers. The version of the program that focuses on NIH emphasizes how to cope with the recent changes in how grant proposals to that agency are written and reviewed. Regardless of the agency, participants are taught to write with a linear progression of logic, which leads reviewers through their applications. The seminar stresses that applicants are writing for two different audiences – the assigned reviewers, who have read the application in its entirety, and non-assigned reviewers who may have read little, or nothing, of the proposal before the meeting of the review panel. Strategies designed to merit a fundable priority score are emphasized.
