Recordings of Funding Workshops Banner (3)

Hello, everyone! 2020 is drawing to an end, so take a moment to pat yourself on the back for making it through the many, unprecedented challenges of this year! As we approach winter break and some well-deserved rest, I want to draw your attention to some new funding resources that can help you in your quest for funding.

We at the GSRC are very pleased to announce that the GradPost Funding pages now feature recordings of our most popular workshops created by the previous Funding Peer, Kaitlyn Ugoretz. We will continue to offer these workshops live via Zoom throughout the year, but we understand that everyone is busy and struggling with Zoom fatigue. Now, you can listen to the recorded workshops, view the slides, and read through the frequently asked questions, in your free time. Check out the recordings on the Workshop page!

Here's what you'll be able to listen to:
