The Premise:

Grantwriting can be better and more efficiently taught by successful researchers rather than self-taught

• r “picked up” along

the way.

FOUR MODELS FOR COACHING GROUPS FOR GRANT WRITING AND PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT

* Includes topics such as time management, talking with program officers about reviews, biosketches, collaborative skills, research methods, etc. ** Program model is tailored to individual needs so there will be variability between content
