On May 13-15, Sinclair Community College’s Department of Grants Development and the Compression Planning Institute will host a grant development workshop at the Regional Learning Alliance in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

Neil Herbkersman and Karla Hibbert-Jones, two nationally recognized grant developers, will be the special instructors for an exclusive grant development workshop designed specifically for writers and leaders of grant writing departments and Directors of Planning and Grants for Foundations.

Herbkersman and Hibber-Jones have developed an application of Compression Planning® that systematically reduces the amount of time spent on each grant. Their planning strategies have made them one of the most productive grant writing offices in the country. Last year, working as a team, they completed an astonishing 189 projects.

In a recent interview, Herbkersen discussed the value of Compression Planning® on grant development , “I estimate we complete projects in about a third less time with Compression Planning. Compression Planning gives us a huge competitive edge. We use it on 100% of all major grants and projects.“

Their grant writing workshop will offer a targeted, skillful training in the areas of idea development, project design, meeting deadlines, master planning, organizing teams, and long-term implementation.
