Category: Grant Funding
-
Instructor: Amber Schott
-
Course Length: 120 minutes
Course objectives:
- Evaluate and prioritize funders strategically, identifying which prospects are genuine fits based on mission alignment, funding history, and priorities — rather than pursuing every opportunity that appears.
- Decode funder intent, reading RFPs and guidelines closely enough to position programs in the language and priorities funders are actually looking for.
- Close the loop between reporting and re-funding, using past grant reports strategically to set up the next ask rather than treating them as a compliance afterthought.
- Identify where AI can add real leverage in the grant portfolio process — from funder research to positioning to report drafting — and where human judgment still has to lead.
Course overview
Most grants are won or lost long before the writing starts — in which funders you pursue, how closely you read what they want, and how your last report set up the next ask.
Two hours inside a working grant portfolio: how funders get chosen, how programs get positioned, and where the cycle quietly breaks. Plus a few places AI can carry real weight.
Get funded. Then get funded again.
