Grant Panelist Orientation

 

If you’re a new grant panelist, these orientation materials will walk you through everything you need to know as you prepare to serve on a grant panel — from how to use the online grant system, to what to look for as you’re reading an application, to what to expect during panel discussion.

If you’re a returning panelist, the orientation will be a good refresher for you, and it  includes updated information as well.

Read or watch any or all of the segments, but if your time is limited we suggest you at least check out Part 3: Guidelines, Criteria, & Process for the grant program you will be reviewing.
