Creating Grant Proposals with AI

A Practical Workshop for Maximizing Impact

Get ready for an engaging workshop that equips you with AI-powered tools to master grant writing. This session is crafted for those who want to push their grant proposals to the front of the pack with a little help from AI. We'll show you how to break down the grant writing process into easy steps and how AI can add value to each one.

Through hands-on exercises and live demos, you'll learn how to blend AI's capabilities with your unique insights. Expect lots of interaction, with plenty of chances to ask questions and discuss how AI can be tailored to your needs. After the workshop, you'll be invited to join our monthly virtual check-ins, offering ongoing support as you apply your new skills.

Learning Objectives

  • Learn how AI can streamline the grant writing process from start to finish.
  • Discover practical ways to integrate AI without losing the personal touch that's key to a compelling proposal.
  • Explore AI tools that can enhance your grant's clarity and effectiveness.
  • Gain insights into using AI to convert data into powerful narratives.
  • Find out how AI can help keep your project aligned with grant requirements.

Session Logistics

  • Participants will attend a 90-minute interactive workshop in Zoom, followed by an optional 1-hour "open lab" experimentation session.
  • Additional "open lab" drop-in hours are offered on a monthly basis (also in Zoom).
  • After the workshop, attendees will have 1 month of access to our AI training platform.
