Beware of Low-Value Grantwriting Workshops
Colleagues, today I received yet another email from an outfit called "The Grant Training Center," advertising a Two-Day Grant Writing Workshop at University of North Carolina at Greensboro.
This organization charges $495 for this workshop, but you can receive much of the same information by working with the CHASS Research Office, with College and University development officers, with your colleagues at NC State, and with your professional network. This event is not sponsored by UNC-G, and this organization is simply renting space at or near UNC-G.
Please let me know if you have questions about this or similar organizations. Some of these offers are legit, but they tend to be the exception, not the rule.
