| Initiative Title | Outreach to faculty and staff encouraging grant participation |
| Submitted in Previous Year(s) | No |
| Critical Information, Notes, Justification, Rationale | Will explore new initiatives to attempt to interest faculty and staff in grant projects which might include: purchasing videos to be streamed on the grant web-page; workshop style trainings; purchasing wider-access funding source search licenses; and speakers from high successful grant programs. |
| Consequences of this initiative not being funded | This is a modest first time initiative meant to attract interest in pursuing a grant to fund a desired project by faculty to staff. Many other factors affect the decision to apply or not, but this initiative is meant to allay fears that it is "too hard" or that a person is "not informed" enough to prepare a grant. |
