As grantseekers, it's vital to streamline the grantwriting process and craft compelling proposals that secure essential funding for our organizations.
As AI tools become more commonplace, they’ll be more widely used in the grants world. However, unlocking their deep benefits is not always easy.
In this workshop, Alice Ruhnke and David Gates will delve into intermediate and advanced techniques you can use to optimize your grantseeking process using AI technology.
You’ll learn:
- a roadmap to follow in order to further develop experience using AI;
- how to generate first drafts of grant proposals based on pre-created grant templates;
- how to experiment with role-playing scenarios where AI adopts the persona of a grant reviewer or a potential funder;
- how to use AI as a collaborative tool in the grantwriting process;
- how to get started with other AI tools beyond ChatGPT, such as Grantable, Gemini, Claude.AI, and Perplexity; and,
- how to build custom GPTs for specific tasks.
Through hands-on demonstrations and practical insights, you’ll gain the skills and confidence needed to take your grantwriting to the next level with AI technology.
This webinar is ideal for grant professionals seeking to deepen their understanding of AI tools and advance their grantwriting capabilities. If you’ve never used AI tools before, we recommend first reviewing our past webinar AI 101: A Beginner's Workshop for Grantwriters.
