Proposal Writing Workshop: Talent Search

May 20 — 21, 2025

Minnesota

In-Person

Tuesday, May 20, at 1:00 p.m. CT, to Wednesday, May 21, at 4:00 p.m. CT

Join us in Minnesota for an exclusive proposal writing workshop designed to help you craft competitive grant proposals. COE’s proposal writing workshop helps participants develop more robust proposals by providing insights into the proposal development process, identifying key components of a successful proposal, and highlighting common pitfalls and mistakes to avoid. This can be particularly useful for individuals new to proposal writing or who have struggled with developing effective proposals. Seasoned TRIO professionals will dissect critical areas of the proposal, review them carefully with participants, and provide helpful hints learned from past competitions.

The program runs from Tuesday, May 20, at 1:00 p.m. CT, to Wednesday, May 21, at 4:00 p.m. CT.

  • This Talent Search proposal writing Workshop is exclusively for COE institutional members. If you see a registration fee, kindly contact Vanessa Ramirez at [email protected] to explore membership options. Don’t miss this valuable benefit! This workshop is for COE institutional members only!
