Educators taught the science of grant writing

ATLANTA - June 9, 2020 - PRLog -- Over 94% of U.S. public school teachers use personal funds to purchase instructional supplies to support student learning, according to the U.S. Department of Education (2018). Given the recent impact of the corona pandemic across the nation, this percent could be even higher.

"Grant writing is a much-needed skill for teachers' toolboxes and a great way to end spending personal funds in the classroom. As a former classroom teacher, I was able to leverage my lesson planning skills to secure funding for my classroom. This series was designed to leverage teachers' talents in lesson plan development and walk them step-by-step through the grant writing process" says author and Executive Director, Bejanae Kareem.

An advocate of educators, BK International Education Consultancy (BKIEC) has launched a webinar series, Grant Writing for Teachers, to teach teachers how to write classroom grants to acquire devices and materials students need for instruction at home or at school. Grant Writing for Teachers offers a flexible and affordable approach to professional learning and obtaining continuing education credits. Priced at just $9.99, teachers and other educational professionals can learn the science of grant writing to secure funding in the 500 billion dollar grant sector.

Some objectives of the webinar series include differentiating between lesson plans and grant applications, explaining the major components of the grant life cycle, teaching the proper tools to draft and submit a grant proposal. Sessions will take place on Saturday mornings or Friday evenings.

With over 15 years of grant acquisition, implementation, and evaluation experience, BK International Education Consultancy is confident these webinars will provide education leaders with targeted support for integrating grant writing skills into their skillset, resulting in an increased level of instructional support provided for families, students, and schools.
