Lucy’s Story – Make Grant Management More Manageable
I’m in my second decade helping individuals and organizations with a wide range of experience be more grant confident with federal grant management.
So, whether you are new to grants or an experienced professional who wants to be up-to-date on the latest federal rules, I’ve designed our programs for relevance to a wide range of skills.
I use a balanced approach with insights into basic terminology and concepts while exploring more advanced strategies and evolving hot topics in each program.
But I know it’s not enough to fill up your brain with facts and kick you out the door.
That’s why I support participants in our courses for a full year of e-mentoring about federal grant management after the training.
That means that you can feel supported with the questions that come up when working with grants, not just during our training.
Does that help you feel more confident?
It’s a simple concept, but I’ve got your back to support you during and after your training.
Happy dance! 😀
Because I’ve been there too!
I know the ups and downs you will face, and I’ve incorporated my years of expertise and recognition as a federal grants training authority into our grant training and support.
When you register, you’ll get access to my tried-and-tested training system that I’ve used for years to help de-code and de-stress federal grants.
And I’ve used these exact strategies to help thousands of grant professionals feel more grant confident, and I want to help you too!
