Every organization, whether big or small, needs funding. Funding greases the wheels of many organizations and allows them to follow their mandates and mission statements. This is where proposals come in. Proposals are the basic tools to access these funds, but these documents don’t write themselves. Proposals are persuasive documents that are fundamental tools in organizational funding and output. The more persuasive your proposals are, the more your chances of getting funds -most especially, organizations that are just starting or about to start.
There are steps and requirements that must be followed to increase your chances of success. This course will look at sources of funding, types of proposals and how to write proposals that will meet funding agencies requirements. This will include a number of tips and techniques to increase the potential success of your proposals. It will also give you an overview of the funding proposal process and the skills to create a proposal that stands a very good chance of being accepted.
Also, an important but often overlooked aspect of proposal writing will be covered- Building and Maintaining Relationships. Relationships are built on honesty. Potential projects must be a good fit for your organization and your organization must be ready to do the work contained in the proposal. The most successful proposals are going to be those that fulfill the mission and values of your organization and that of the funding agencies as well!
So if you or your organization is looking forward to getting that fund or getting that project, then, this course is your ticket. This course will help you create a proposal that will give you an edge over your counterparts and also get funded for better operations. Enroll and get funded!

Training Information
Delivery: E-learning (interactive, self-paced, and convenient).
How It Works: Using the unique login details we will send, participants simply access our learning portal with their browser and start learning.
Each participant will be in control of their learning pace and so can leverage our built-in concept of scaffolding to boost learning outcome.
Besides, they take the training at their convenience – any time of the day that suits their schedule and as frequently as they like until they finish.
Anywhere in the course a participant stops temporarily, it’s automatically saved so when they resume they continue from there by default.
Duration: Because it's self-paced, participants finish at different times. However, on the average, busy participants finish in 1 week.
Reports: We send reports periodically to your organization until all participants complete their training. For each participant, the reports show progress, performance score, total time spent learning, and the last time course was accessed.
Certificate: Each participant receives a certificate of training if course is successfully completed.
Access period: 30 days (can be extended).
Access device: Computer, Smartphone, or Tablet.
Comes with: Course transcripts for reference, and 100% money-back guarantee.
Learning Management & Support: We are usually in touch with every participant to encourage and support them until they finish. This leads to very high course completion rate.
Learning Outcome: On LearnSmart, the learning outcome compares favorably with that of conventional training. This is because of increased level of participation through interactivity and learning-pace control.
Throughout each course, in an interactive manner, there are engaging questions and exercises that help assess the participant’s understanding as they learn. This approach gives concepts their own room to breathe and get digested.
And with control of their learning pace, each participant will have the ability to stop and reflect whenever they want, or return to previously-delivered content, and thus ensure a deeper understanding before continuing. A participant will have the time to digest and integrate information being presented into their existing understanding and context. This is how they make sense of it leading to higher levels of cognitive engagement and higher levels of retention.
For the best learning outcome, we recommend that training be taken in chunks of minutes consistently rather than taking it in a long stretch trying to finish quickly.
