My Grant Writing Secrets

EXCERPT FROM THE BOOK


Secret Number 15
Become a Paid Government Grant Reviewer

Grant proposals submitted to the federal government are generally reviewed first by a peer review panel. This panel consists of people in related fields of interest who are instructed to offer an unbiased assessment of the grant proposals that have been submitted. The members of this panel will assign ratings according to the criteria that they are given. There are many different areas of interest.

When I first started, we were required to travel to Washington, DC. Today you will probably be able to perform your review services online. The rate of pay varies according to the different agencies. What you will appreciate besides the pay, is the opportunity to learn just how the granting process works. It will also help to develop your skills as a grant proposal writer.

...If you are not sure about which agencies are best for you, explore some of the links that I provided in this material.
