Description
This invaluable handbook for anyone wishing to explore possibilities for a project, write a strong proposal and eventually implement and conclude their project successfully. The material is mostly related to grant proposal development for education, but many of the ideas will be valuable to anyone writing for a grant.
The book begins with a discussion of the planning and some of the 'major tools of the trade' needed to get started in the grant / project field. The authors cover some important steps in developing a successful grant application. The final part discusses both implementing a project and the often difficult but realistic element of terminating a project at the end of external support.
