Students practice taking short sections of the test\, and are relaxed and well-rested\, so they are able to absorb the lessons and practice at their best. Using lessons that she writes herself\, Smyth has helped many students through their own hard work improve their SAT scores by 100-200 points.

Between annual appeals\, communications\, virtual event planning and fundraising\, you’re overwhelmed. And now you’ve been tasked with writing a grant and you don’t know where to start. Our online grant writing program can help! \nThis interactive online professional development program will teach you the basics of seeing a grant through a full cycle—from inception to completion. You’ll learn how to get your organization ready to apply for grants\, where to find funders and funding opportunities\, how to write the components of a grant and how to submit a successful application that has all the information funders want to see. \nUsing case studies\, this program will focus on real-world grant applications. Comprehensive checklists and worksheets will guide you through every step of planning\, researching\, applying to and managing a grant—without missing a thing! You’ll also develop language specific to your organization that answers common grant questions. \nThe only thing you won’t learn in this program is how to celebrate securing a grant proposal. We figure you’ve got that one covered. 🙂 \nVisit our website for more information:\nhttps://dll.umaine.edu/grant-writing/ URL:/calendar/event/grant-writing-essentials-9/2026-10-20/ CATEGORIES:Conferences & Workshops,Lectures & Seminars,Online Events END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20261021T183000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20261021T200000 DTSTAMP:20260611T181324 CREATED:20260327T163410Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260327T163410Z UID:10007314-1792607400-1792612800@umaine.edu SUMMARY:What’s Next?
