• Grants.gov Workspace --- Have you heard?  Grants.gov legacy PDF applications are retiring in December.  It’s time to learn how to prepare your proposal application in the new Grants.gov web-based submission solution called Workspace.   If you prepare or plan to prepare proposals to federal sponsors (e.g. U.S. Department of Defense, Department of Agriculture, Department of Labor), please join us as we learn the steps necessary to prepare your next proposal in Grants.gov Workspace.  You will get instruction in registering, creating, completing, and submitting your proposal.
