Grantsmanship Certificate
About Grantsmanship
The Grantsmanship certificate provides instruction in developing the project plan for the grant application, using the review criteria to structure the application and minimizing potential post award compliance issues. The curriculum integrates the art and science of grantsmanship with numerous examples and scenarios designed to provide a meaningful "hands-on" learning experience, such as participating in a mock panel review for an agency, evaluating goals hypotheses, and specific aims for accuracy and measurability, and budget design. The certificate is designed for the research administrator who wishes to assist faculty or investigators in pursuing external funding sources. Research administrators will also learn from proven examples designed to help them create a more supportive environment to assist faculty in writing more and/or better proposals, locating appropriate funding sources, writing short proposals for private or internal funding support.

About the Certificate Tracking Booklet
The tracking booklet allows members to easily record their progress. Obtain a stamp at the conclusion of each workshop or session. Once all coursework has been completed turn in your documentation to the Registration Desk at the meeting or e-mail it to Certificates@srainternational.org to receive your certificate of completion. If you attended a workshop or session at a previous SRA meeting, list the meeting on the line next to the course. SRA staff will verify your attendance at previous meetings. The blank lines under electives are for future meetings where new sessions may be held.
