GrantLab is a tried-and-tested training concept that provides unique deep insight into what makes grant proposals work – or not – at the same time preparing projects for submission as highly competitive research grant proposals.
Getting started
Initial presentations and exercises; how research funding works; the research project from a funder perspective; how to translate this into a competitive grant proposal.
Projects are selected, best effect if real projects are used.
Working with proposals
Next participants develop projects using new insights; prepare realistic mini-proposals and submit them.
Applicants 'magically' turn into reviewers, and go through a realistic proposal assessment procedure.
It all comes together
The realistic mock review panel meeting is the critical culmination of GrantLab, where deep learning and unique insights are attained. Follow-up sharpens projects into highly competitive grant proposals.
