3. Address the guidelines of federal and foundation applications
4. Find foundation and corporate giving sources specific for the Province of British Columbia
5. Understand the new federal guidelines for writing winning grants

10. Package professional grant submissions

Our ultimate goal is for each participant to walk away with a product specific to their interests that includes the grant design, abstract and budget.
Thus, the opportunity to influence the future of your work and ideas is within your reach. Understanding this reality, institutions are willing to minimally invest in the training of their staff to make this happen.
