Just Added in Des Moines!

The United Way of Central Iowa and The Grantsmanship Center are bringing the Grantsmanship Training Program to Des Moines, Iowa, May 2-6, 2016.

Learn how to win grants! Do you want foundation, corporate, or government funding? We'll give you the skills and knowledge you need to win grants because we literally wrote the book! Over 40 years ago, The Grantsmanship Center set the industry standard for training with the Grantsmanship Training Program. This training has always set the pace for the field and now, with an updated textbook, it has more muscle than ever.

This textbook, Grantsmanship: Program Planning & Proposal Writing, is the expanded edition of the seminal work in the field. The original sold more than a million copies and the new edition has opened to rave reviews!

All grant proposal writers will benefit from Grantsmanship: Program Planning & Proposal Writing, with its essential framework for success....this new edition is beautifully illustrated, cleanly edited, and a page turner to boot. Go turn it into money! Jennifer Leonard President and CEO Rochester Area Community Foundation (NY)

There's only one thing better than this book for someone who wants to learn how to secure grant funding--take The Grantsmanship Center training along with this book.

If you're new to proposal writing, this class will build your foundation for

success. If you're an experienced professional, this class will polish your skills. Working actively with new colleagues, you'll learn and practice "grant thinking" that will give your proposals a razor-sharp competitive edge. Over 5 active days you'll transform theory into practice and return to work ready to win grant funds.

I took The Grantsmanship Center's 5-day Grantsmanship Training Program and found it worth every minute! A week after the class, we wrote a development grant followed by an implementation grant. Both were successful, and I credit The Grantsmanship Center with giving us the training that allowed us to work clearly and swiftly to receive these funds.

This training produces results! An ongoing, independent evaluation shows that our graduates win grants because they know how to identify funders, plan programs, define outcomes, and collaborate. In a follow-up study of 125 of our graduates, they had won a combined total of $5 million in grant funding within six months of completing the program. This is the only grant-development training that's been proven to produce results.

Special follow-up care for 12 months - at no extra cost! Follow-up support includes a proposal review and full access to the Center's databases of foundation, corporate, and federal grantmakers (a $495 value), and more!
