Visit www.wscc.edu and click on the web advisor link to search quarterly course listings. Grant Development and Management Courses may be listed in the Business Management section, the Online section, or the Business and Industry section.

Why Enroll? Grant writing is an emerging and necessary skill in a variety of professional settings. With federal, state, and local budget cuts hitting from seemingly all directions, more and more organizations (both profit and nonprofit) are being forced to look at alternative methods of funding established as well as new programs and services. This course will prepare participants to seek grant funding as an alternative funding source to supplement organizational budgets and needs.
|
Who should attend? This course is targeted for employees of non-profit, educational, or government agencies of all types. Individuals who are interested in learning to write grant proposals, starting a grant writing consulting business, or securing a future job in a non-profit, educational, or government agency will also benefit from this course. College students or graduates with a degree in education, social-service, art, technology, or business will get an edge in the job market by learning a specialized skill to complement their degree.
