It’s time to get that CREATE grant in and “tell your
education story” to the ERC. After all, the narrative writing is the meat
of the entire application that provides the most information regarding your
need, plan and expected outcomes. It should reflect an obvious connection
to your mission and goals. A good narrative is like a good story and
flows and builds from one section to the next. Therefore, it is up to you
as the applicant to make sure the reviewers can easily read and understand what
you are trying to say. Remember, the ERC is reviewing many applications
so it is up to you to be proactive in keeping your application focused on the
main points. It is never a good practice to make them hunt for the answers to
what you want. Believe it or not, in grant writing …Simple is actually good!
