The Writing Successful Grants KnowledgeBase is an online resource aiding education professionals in their pursuit of public and private grants to support local programs. Its five elements contain information and resources that assist the grant seeker with developing their project, writing the grant proposal and managing the grant upon its award.

Task 4: Develop Internal Review Process

Guideline: Prior to writing the grant proposal, the grant seeker should develop an internal process for reviewing the proposal before it is submitted. An internal review offers the grant seeker the opportunity to assess its proposal against the funding sources' review criteria and involve colleagues who have not participated in the proposal writing. Smaller organizations might invite peers from larger organizations with prior grant writing experience to participate as part of their internal review process. The Project Lead must manage the internal review process so that the review is accomplished in a timely manner and does not impede meeting submission due dates.
