TRAINING COURSES (JUNE, JULY, AUGUST 2010):
‘HOW TO WRITE AND DEVELOP EXCEPTIONAL GRANT FUNDING APPLICATIONS’
Delivered by Stephen Wright
Applying for grant funding is very competitive and professional in its approach; the ‘funding bar’ is continuing to rise. A number of one-day training courses will be delivered by Stephen Wright during June, July and August at a variety of venues across Cheshire and surrounding areas. The training will enable public, private, voluntary and community sector organisations to write and develop ‘exceptional’ grant funding applications, principles which will also assist in tendering for contracts. Places are limited and must be booked in advance.
Stephen’s training courses are relaxed, informative, engaging, interactive, and use various learning methods to help you understand and remember key points. His professional approach, extensive network of contacts, quality of advice plus wealth of knowledge and experience has been gained during a 12 year career working in a local authority environment in Cheshire. Stephen is well respected by individuals and organisations across the county. His courses have a track record of success; they are motivational and aim to inspire success!
