On-Demand Classes

On-demand classes began life as live teleclasses. They were recorded so that you can take them any time that's convenient. Once you register, you will be on the classroom page for the class, where you can download the class materials and listen to the recording, right from your office or home over your computer. You may log in as many times as you wish for 90 days, so you don't have to take the entire class at one time. You may also want to repeat sections -- the class player enables you to reposition the class to any part of the class discussion.

Below are the on-demand classes that were produced by AAGP as part of the AAGP CharityUniversity™ project. If you see one you'd like to take, click on the Register tab to learn how to instantly register. As an AAGP member, you will receive a Coupon code that entitles you to the equivalent of 10% off of the cost of these classes.

Advanced Collaboration

Advanced Collaboration is for anyone who has to collaborate in their job, who likes or hates to collaborate in their job, who puts collaborations together for grants, who wants to transform the world or some part of it, or who needs to sustain and document collaboration. Course participants should be interested in effective collaboration – building and sustaining collaboration that creates forward movement, incubates great thoughts, or motivates.

The materials include plenty of examples provided by AAGP members. Our goal is to give you an improved understanding of formatting techniques for grant proposals and some fresh ideas to boot.

The Who, What, Why, When and Wherefores of Grant Reviewing

Grant reviewing is sometimes thought of as a mystical process that involves the reviewer holding your grant application against his or her forehead, closing their eyes and saying “Feels fundable to me.” You write what you believe is a Grade A grant application only to have it picked apart at best and at worse, receive no comments at all, other than a one sentence letter telling you it wasn’t funded. These were the experiences that drove me to enter the world of grant reviewing. Four years and countless reviewed grant applications later the mystery has been solved for me.
