MSUM Offers Grant Writing Bootcamp
MSUM is offering a Grant Writing Bootcamp May 18-22 with sessions running from 9 a.m.-4:30 p.m. in MacLean Hall 166. The course may be taken for noncredit at a cost of $295 plus the cost of the text, or it may be taken for 3 undergraduate or graduate credits at the regular tuition rate.
The workshop is intended for a diverse audience, including human service professionals. Participants will learn how to locate sources of money, tailor the needs of human service organizations to the funding priorities of grants, develop essential components of writing a grant, assess strategies for evaluation, and develop a proposal. Through consultation with the instructors, participants will then find ways to strengthen those proposals.
Workshop presenters are Shawn Ginther, MSUM professor of social work, and Susan Humphers-Ginther, MSUM professor of sociology and coordinator of the gerontology major. Both presenters have over a decade of experience with grant writing and administration while associated with numerous private, state, and federal projects.
