Grant Writing
Certification Program
Course Overview:
Grant writing techniques and processes are in a transitional stage. Grant writers need to stay on top of the latest trends that include more online grant applications, requirements for better designed evaluations, and new social policies that determine grant opportunities. In this 4-day certificate program, participants will attend two and a half days of grant writing instruction. This class will help participants increase their chances of winning competitive grants through a better understanding of the entire grant writing process – from planning to writing. Participants will learn to identify their strengths as grant writers, and acquire the skills required to “think” like a professional in the development and marketing fields.
Training Audience for Grant Writing:
This class is designed to meet the needs of three different categories of participants including staff and officials who are completely new to grant writing and need a basic understanding of the process; those who are currently working on a grant-writing project and are facing specific grant writing problems and issues; or successful practitioners in the field who are seeking specialized information and advanced insights into grant project development.
Paralegal Certificate Program
The Paralegal Certificate Program is a 300-hour course of study designed to train students in the aspects of the paralegal profession. The program merges the interactive, user-driven aspects of the Internet with a comprehensive paralegal curriculum. It teaches students form manipulation based on any template and instructs students in foundational skillsets. In addition, the online Writing Lab included in the program contains step-by-step instructions for preparing documents specific to the United States at a state and federal court level. As a result, the skillsets learned are transferable throughout the United States and, as such, students will learn to create valid legal documents for their jurisdiction. Instructors will provide additional state-specific guidance as needed.
Note: The curriculum is based on the United States legal system, therefore focuses on the role of paralegals in the United States. 6/26pd
