This course is for beginners, and so there are no pre-requisites. However, some experience or knowledge of grant application processes would be helpful. While not required, participants would benefit from taking the introductory grant writing course to get a basic introduction to grants and the grant application process if they have not had any direct experience developing or writing grant proposals.

Learning Objectives:

1. Understand budgetary requirements for grants based on reading RFPs
2. Practice building a draft grant budget, budget justification, and other documents
