Meet the Funder
It is valuable for grant writers to know their audience and understand what that particular audience values in regard to education research. During this session, representatives from a range of funding agencies will provide insight into their specific programs and organizational values. Each funder’s session will last 30 minutes, including Q&A. The funders will present their session twice, allowing Fellows to attend two different sessions. There will be 10 minutes allotted between sessions, during which time Fellows may introduce themselves to the funders or ask individual questions.
Fellows signed up for two sessions prior to the retreat via a survey that was sent by NAEd staff and should only attend the sessions for which they signed up.
Room Assignments Vary
4:15 PM – 4:45 PM
