The funding environment may change, but there is one given -- grantseekers need to  know how to write the strongest grant proposals possible.

Join us for Part 2 of CD Publications'  most popular audio conference series, "Grantwriting 101: Anatomy of a Winning Grant Application: A step-by-step Analysis."

Billions of dollars are available in the federal and private funding arenas and this audio conference will provide expert advice on how to successfully apply for those funds.  Incorporating this time-tested information into your grantseeking strategy will ease the application preparation and submission process, as well as dramatically enhance your chances of winning that all-important funding for your program.

In addition to delivering a wealth of valuable advice and comprehensive guidance, our expert speakers will dissect a winning grant application, providing hands-on experience for preparing and submitting compelling proposals.

Our presenters for this upcoming event are:

• Ray Sweeney, long-time grantwriting consultant and editor of Federal & Foundation Assistance Monitor; and
• Jim Rogers, a 40-year veteran of the Washington press corps, and editor of Aging News Alert, the Seniors Services & Funding Report.

Together, these experienced experts will provide an information-filled hour focusing on key elements critically important to the application preparation process. You'll learn about ...

• The importance of  "Grants Calendars" ... Where to find one; and if you can't find one, how to create one;
• Letters of inquiry ... Are they really necessary, or should you just focus on full proposal opportunities?
• The important components of the grant guidance; are some sections more important than others? What's the best way to handle these sections? 
• The differences between absolute, competitive and invitational priorities ... Why should you worry about invitational priorities that don't provide additional scoring points?
• What a typical grant preparation cycle includes ...

And so much more!
