A crucial way to fast-track your grant writing is to become a federal grant reviewer.

You do not have to be a grant writer or have a PhD. You just need to have experience (unpaid or paid) in the subject area of the grant and have the internet.

However, every single federal agency has a different application process! 🤦‍♀️

But what is similar are the benefits that you get from being a federal grant reviewer!

A federal grant reviewer is someone (non-federal) who reviews federal grant applications.

Why is this beneficial for you as a grant writer?

Bonjour!

Je m'appelle Alice et j'exerce un métier passionnant : je suis Business Analyst. Consultant fonctionnel, AMOA, analyste métier, consultant de tous poils (métier, stratégie, gouvernance, en systèmes d'information...), tous ces termes recoupent en partie le périmètre de mon métier.

J'ai lancé mon blog en septembre 2018, après avoir constaté qu'il n'y avait ni formation ni information tout court sur ce que je faisais, alors que l'offre est largement inférieure à la demande sur le marché du travail, que c'est bien payé, super intéressant, et que bien des gens peuvent profiter d'une reconversion professionnelle pour devenir Business Analyst. Oui, je sais, ça semble presque trop beau pour être vrai!

Alors j'ai décidé de partager mon expérience (depuis 2007 - avant j'étais contrôleur de gestion... mais je me suis repentie et surtout reconvertie!)et d'aider toutes celles et tous ceux qui veulent en savoir plus sur ce métier en partageant les bonnes pratiques, activités, livrables, méthodes de l'analyse métier.

J'ai aussi décidé de vous partager en "live" le déroulement de ma nouvelle mission, depuis le tout premier jour chez mon client jusqu'à, je l'espère, la livraison de la solution.

N'hésitez pas à visiter mon blog, il regorge d'informations utiles ;) !
