Southwestern BDC schedules Grant Writing Institute

The Southwestern Oregon Community College Business Development Center is offering an opportunity for non-profit agencies to receive in-depth grant writing training at its five-day Grant Writing Institute.

The BDC, located in North Bend, will be hosting the four sessions, scheduled over the course of five days, starting April 21. The series kicks off with Foundations, which covers different kinds of foundations, as well as what they fund and grant worthiness, on Monday, April 21. The next seminar, scheduled for Tuesday, April 22, is designed to guide students through the fundamental components of writing formal Foundation Grant Proposals.

In the third seminar, scheduled for Wednesday and Thursday, April 23 and 24, participants will be able to participate in a two-day, hands-on grant-writing lab. The fourth and final installment is on Government Grant Writing, and covers the process of federal grant writing in detail on Friday, April 25.

Pre-registration is required for the workshops, as space is limited, and there is an early registration discount for those who sign up before April 11. For more information, those interested can contact the BDC at 756-6778.
