What our clients say
Grants and funding agreements
Provided a much broader grounding of the topic than I expected. This will give me a far better understanding of how to establish a grants program.
Fantastic workshop. Jamie's style is very easy to listen to and his knowledge of the topic was exceptional. I learnt a lot.
I am presently revising grant procedures and guidelines in the department I work in. Learning from this workshop will provide a solid understanding of what processes should be put in place.
