Trends in Education Panel
 

Outline or Narrative of Presentation

Please join our expert panel in a discussion of anticipated trends in grant opportunities.  Without using a crystal ball, the group will share ideas of what the future holds in the areas of educational funding and what we can do as grant professionals to align ourselves with these trends.  Participants will learn where to search for forecasting signs ourselves such as legislation and the federal register.
