PROJECT PLANNING & PROPOSAL WRITING

DESIGN PROJECTS THAT DONORS WILL SUPPORT & WRITE PROPOSALS THAT PERSUADE

DESIGN PROJECTS THAT DELIVER POSITIVE, MEASURABLE CHANGE

DELIVER PROPOSALS THAT YOUR DONORS WILL SUPPORT

Successful projects have to offer value to end users and donors. But identifying a winning project and having a good plan often isn't enough. Donors will only support proposals that:

  • Convince them of the value of solving the problem
  • Demonstrate that you have a solution
  • Persuade them you can deliver results

So you need to be a good communicator, too - presenting your ideas clearly and persuasively.

WHAT OUR PRACTICAL PROJECT PLANNING & PROPOSAL WRITING COURSE WILL TEACH YOU

You will learn:

  • How to design your own project
  • How to write a proposal that donors will support

COURSE OUTCOMES

This flexible, self-paced, practical course will teach you how to:

  • Design a project your donors will support
  • Plan, draft and edit a persuasive proposal


CLEAR & PRACTICAL LEARNING

The course allows for maximum practical work. While you will get all the theory you need, you will learn the steps and tools in a way that you can apply time after time after the course is over so that:

  • You will always know what to do each time you have to develop a proposal
  • Your proposals will be well-organised, clear and persuasive - contributing to better relations with donors and, more importantly, increased donor support

  • Plan and draft your writing

Welcome From Course Instructor Neil Kendrick

Hello - and thanks for checking out this course! I’m excited to share with you the skills involved in becoming a successful proposal writer.

For over 20 years I've helped development professionals get support from donors through winning proposals. From small NGOs to multi-donor million dollar projects, I've worked with proposal writers from a range of sectors, helping them get support for their projects. From my worldwide experience, you’ll quickly learn what works and what doesn't.

This practical, step-by-step course is for all those aspiring proposal writers who can't join our face-to-face training due to time, work or expense. Now - without having to book time off, or jump on a plane - you'll soon be able to:

  • Design a project your donors will support
  • Plan, draft and edit a winning proposal

And, just like donors, you also want results and value for money. Flying to a training, with all its extra costs, can be expensive. And for less than the travel costs alone, in just a few moments you can have access to this step-by-step, practical training - all downloadable so you don't miss a thing.

So join me now, on this journey towards winning project proposals.
