What Makes the Guam and CNMI 6-Week Grant Training Unique?
Let’s face it. Most grant training in Guam and CNMI is a 3-day crash course due to off-island trainer schedules. While doing a crash course may seem great, learning a skill takes time.
And let’s be real. Three hours into that first day of the grant writing crash course, you are checked out. It’s a TON of information. By the third day, you are overwhelmed.
In our 6-week course, we only meet 2 hours per week and cover one topic per week. You have time to work on your Master Grant Template and have time to process what you are learning.
It Isn’t A Crash Course
