Grant Guides Plus, in collaboration with Nonprofit Education & Training Associates (N.E.T), is kicking off a new series of online training sessions for non-governmental organisations with two summer programs. The series is designed for NGOs from Africa, Asia, the Middle East, South America, and other international agencies who want to raise grant funds from North American and Western European sources.

The Art and Politics of Raising Grant Money provides an overview of the major principles, concepts, and skills needed to raise grant funds. Writing Successful Grant Proposals provides training on the initial approach to U.S. foundations, the various sections of a grant proposal, documents and appendices to accompany your proposal, researching funders on the Internet, “do’s” and “don’t’s” of proposal writing, and other practical tips on writing and packaging your proposal.

Both courses are four weeks in length and all participants will be able to interact directly with the instructor by e-mail. Participants will receive everything necessary for their course work by e-mail-lessons, articles, readings, worksheets, tips and suggestions. Find out more from Grant Guides Plus.
