Proposal Writing:  Making your Ideas Happen

This course provides the framework for you to produce the proposal that you need to get your idea off the ground. You will be producing your proposal over the ten weeks of the course. Each week will feature an instruction session, but the majority of course time will be devoted to your in-class, hands-on proposal development. You will be finding the funders you need to target, honing and shaping your ideas, writing, editing, and presenting your project in a way that makes its merits shine. By the end of the course you will be ready to send off your proposal.
