Organizations that are willing to host a workshop for their area receive three complimentary registrations. Host organizations provide a training facility that will accommodate up to 25 students, a PowerPoint projector, a white/black board, Internet access and morning/afternoon coffee for students. Richard J. Condon & Associates advertises the workshop throughout the region and handles all aspects of student registration. Student registration fees cover the cost of the workshop. It is helpful, but not a requirement, when host agencies also promote the workshop by sending out notices.

Pre-Conference/Convention Workshops
Add a moneymaker to your organization’s upcoming conference to help cover costs by offering a pre-conference grant workshop. Groups have raised several thousand dollars beyond the cost of the workshop by charging participants a registration fee. Workshops can be customized so that they are relevant to the needs of those attending.
Because workshop cost varies with workshop length and travel cost, conference planners should call or e-mail for further details.
Consulting and Proposal Writing/Review
We can help you develop a project/program and a funding strategy. We can also write a grant application for you. Should you want to write your own grant application, we can give you advice prior to you writing it and then review what you have written before you submit it to the funding agency. Our proposal writing/review fee is $50 per hour or an agreed upon flat rate. The rate for developing a project/program and funding strategy is based on the amount of work that must be performed and whether travel is needed. This rate is negotiable.
