- What Our Students Said About This Seminar!
- “Linda Vallejo’s diligence in keeping the learning environment
organized and progressing was great. I feel that my time was
well spent, rather than wasted on tangential stories. I enjoyed
her presentation style.”
- “Linda very specific suggestions to supplement existing
funding sources were most helpful. I found the samples and
forms to be informative. The step-by-step plan for large and
small grants can be implemented by everyone with great success!”
- "The seminar gave me focus and an ability to see the ‘important’
stuff. I am also able to ask critical questions to the mysterious
and powerful grantwriters of the world!”
- “The grantwriting seminar was brimming with life-changing
information that revolutionized my way of viewing fundraising
and grantwriting worlds. I now understand that the process
is clear and simple thanks to Linda’s comprehensive systems
and expert tools. The most revolutionary idea for me is that
my energy is best served in preparing thoroughly and professionally
rather than in anxiously scrambling to gather information
for grants that “come my way.”
- "I appreciated the organization and delivery of this course
as the grantwriting procedure has been explained so thoroughly.
I can now see a very logical progression in the whole process
and I can actually see myself fully engaged in the grant application
process. The A to Z Grantwriting Manual will be well used as
it clearly explains the step-by-step process and contains all
the necessary examples I’ll need to refer to in the future.”
- "I learned not to put the cart before the horse to be
more effective in getting funding, but to be more organized, identifying
who we are as an agency and we e aim to accomplish
in this community. I feel organized and much more confident about
funding opportunities.”
- “I have been writing successful grant
proposals for the past ten years, however the process was often
stressful and the proposals were always submitted at the last
possible moment. Linda’s organizational system is a God send!"
- "The most important part was learning the system of writing
the biggest overview proposal and editing it down to all
of the smaller proposals. By the end of the seminar I had gained
the crucial final 10% of knowledge that will allow me
to streamline my work to be more successful in obtaining funds.
The seminar provided me with a sound foundation to provide capacity
building for my institution."
