This week, although shortened by the Memorial Day holiday, was still very productive, especially in introducing me to the complexities of program financing. Due to the rapid process of development and implementation required in creating workforce training courses, the location of funding is crucial to success.
To this end, I spent many hours this week combing through requests for proposals (aka, RFPs) through the US government's site grants.gov as well as grant guidelines for private foundations such as the Kresge Foundation. From this work I have concluded that finding the grant that "fits" a proposal is as important as the content of the proposal.
