Here are some comments from previous participants on what they found useful about the course:
- "Honestly the course is very helpful. I have realised most of the errors that obstructed me from winning a grant. It also improve my skills for planning and writing effective research proposal." Man, Nigeria
- "Firstly, because of this course, I have become familiar with so many terms and concepts I was unaware of. Secondly, I came to know about so many renowned funding sources and valid journals and the steps for publishing my intended master's research. Overall, the course had a great impact on improving my knowledge." Woman, Pakistan
- "The design and implementation of the course were meticulously crafted, and all the content is highly relevant. The hands on exercise: Proposal submission and assessment was a unique activity for me as i was able to write a grant proposal for the first time and the feedbacks were awesome." Woman, Benin
- "I have gained new insight into grant proposal writing, which I implemented in a recent proposal I submitted. The significance, innovation, sustainability, and impact section of the proposal was improved due my participation in this course. Many thanks for the opportunity." Man, Ghana
- "I recently submitted a collaborative grant proposal and was awarded the grant. Even after winning the grant, I still was not confident in my proposal-writing skills because the funder had provided a template for the grant proposal. After taking this course, I related to many aspects of the grant I submitted, especially with regards to the CVs and feedback from the funder. This course has opened my mind to the many components of a good grant and how I can improve cohesiveness in writing, especially with regards to impact and better ways of handling collaborative grants. I have since made some changes to how we will run the project from now on. With slots for relevant communication with the funder. Thank you very much. The course was very informative, detailed, educational, reflective, and refreshing." Woman, Zambia
