Grant Winner's Toolkit : Project Management and Evaluation,
By Rodney Slaughter (Chico, California (USA)) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Grant Winner's Toolkit: Project Management and Evaluation (Paperback)
Too many grant seekers think that winning a grant is a job well done. The reality is that winning the grant is only a first step in a long process. This book has all the information anyone needs to effectively manage their grant programs. The text is well written and easy to read and follow. The examples and sample documents are worth their weight in gold! I would highly recommend this book to begining grant writers who have never had the opportuntiy to work on a grant project. This book will help you avoid the pitfalls many of us had to discover the hard way.

A Grant Winner's Must Have,
By Lynda Reynolds - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Grant Winner's Toolkit: Project Management and Evaluation (Paperback)
Cheryl Carter New and James Aaron Quick have put together a complete collection of MUST HAVE books for the Grant Seeker. Getting the Grant funded is just part of the process, "The Grant Winner's Toolkit" walks you through the "Now What?" phase of grant seeking. I never put Cheryl and James's books back on the shelf, they are ALWAYS on my desk, where I can easily reach for them...they are the BEST!
