Grant Award Management

Once you've successfully secured funding, the journey has only just begun. This course is designed to introduce you to essential skills and knowledge to effectively manage grants, maximize their impact, and build sustainable relationships with funders.

Managing grant resources is more than simply budgeting, although that is an important aspect of it. From allocating resources strategically to writing impactful reports that showcase how your projects have positively impacted communities, understanding these reporting requirements isn't just about paperwork—it's about building credibility for future grants. This online, self-paced course covers strategies for cultivating these partnerships, leveraging successful project outcomes to strengthen ties and potentially open doors to additional funding opportunities. Building credibility through demonstrated success is not just a requirement but a cornerstone for establishing enduring relationships built on trust and mutual benefit.

Proposal writing for grant funding is competitive, and a highly in-demand skill, and having the ability to manage awards -- from implementation to reporting and beyond -- is equally important. From non-profit organizations to educational institutions or even community groups, grant writing and grant management is a vital component of fundraising efforts, and can be critical for continued success and operation. Having grant writing and management skills is essential for many jobs and positions, not just ones with the title of “Grant Writer.”

Whether you are new to grant management or seeking to refine your existing skills, this course offers practical guidance and actionable insights that empower you to navigate the complexities of post-award grant administration effectively.
