Kentucky Nonprofit Network is proud to partner again with GrantsMagic U to bring you The Ultimate Grant Proposal Blueprint: Your Step-By-Step Roadmap and Build-It-Yourself Toolkit for Crafting an A+ Proposal

In this comprehensive, on-your-own-schedule video-based course, veteran grant writer, grant consultant and grantmaker Maryn Boess pulls back the curtain on what it really takes to be successful in the grants world and shares hundreds of tried-and-tested tools, strategies, how-to's and "insider's tips" to take you to your next level of grants success ... no matter where you're starting out.

Here’s what you get with this course:

In eight fast-paced, information-rich video sessions totaling about 16 hours (released every Monday June 17-Aug. 5):

Your Ultimate Grant Proposal Blueprint course comes packed with everything you need for success inside the course ... and beyond, as you continue putting what you learn to work for your nonprofit community.

8-session course schedule:

Every Monday starting June 17, you’ll get access to a new training video of about 2 hours each, plus detailed handouts and resource materials. Because this is an on-demand program, once a session has been released, you and your team can watch at any time, on your own schedule.

Here’s the agenda:

Part A. Starting Right Where You Are – Right Now (Session 1, released June 17)

The first week is all about meeting you right where you are – wherever you’re starting out - and getting you ramped up and ready for the journey ahead.

Part B: Your Ultimate Grant Proposal Blueprint, Unpacked (Sessions 2-7). 

For the next six weeks you’ll be taking a deep dive, one at a time, into each of the key sections of your Ultimate Grant Proposal Blueprint. Working with the framework laid out in Part A, you’ll work with checklists, planning tools, formulas, and fill-in-the-blanks templates that guide you step by step through exactly how to shape the details that bring your project to life and create a clear, compelling proposal. Remember, once a session has been released you can watch it any time, on your own schedule.

Part C: Turning Your Ultimate Grant Proposal Blueprint . . . into an A+ Proposal (Session 8,released Aug. 5). 

This final session covers how to transform your Ultimate Grant Proposal Blueprint into an A+ proposal that matches the requirements of any given funder. You’ll cover the elements of good writing; what to think about when making formatting decisions; how to “read” an RFP; things to think about when working with an online proposal submission; and much more.

Live Q&A Call-Ins:

As part of your course, you're invited to take part in 3 live conference-call Q&A sessions with Maryn, where you, your team members and your fellow students can get on-the-ground answers to all your questions about grants, grantseeking, grantmaking.  These one-hour sessions are exclusively for you and the other nonprofit teams participating in this Blueprint course.
