Veronica Robbins Launches a New Grant Sample Website

Woodland, California (Vocus/PRWEB) March 18, 2011

The brand new grant samples web site provides access to seven categories of grants and many unique samples from state and federal grant programs within each category.

Veteran grant writer and evaluator Veronica Robbins, the CEO of Creative Resources and Research (CRR), has been a professional grant writing consultant for 17 years. Veronica’s grant writing success is evident in the fact that CRR secured more than one hundred fifty five million dollars in grant funding for clients over the past decade.

One of the ways that grant writers learn appropriate grant language styles and formatting is by reading successful grants written by other writers. But before now, grant samples have previously been scattered all around the Internet but now these hard-to-find grant samples are collected together at grantsamples.com. The seven categories of grant samples offered currently include:

    Education Grants
    Law Enforcement Grants
    Non Profit Grants
    Library Grants
    Museum Grants
    Youth Grants
    Municipal Grants

The number of grant samples available to grant writers at grantsample.com grows weekly. Creative Resources and Research continually adds new samples from its large catalog to expand the online grant samples available for grant writing preparation and research.

The National Institute of Business Grants (NIBG) Addresses 5 Common Misconceptions About Business Grants

Columbus, OH (PRWEB) November 26, 2008

Business grants have been accessible to business owners in the United States for decades. Annually, hundreds of millions of dollars in grant money are disbursed to individuals to help them start or expand an existing business.

Despite this, every year several myths and misconceptions resurface discouraging entrepreneurs from taking advantage of such opportunities.

Here are the top 5 misconceptions and why they should be completely ignored:

1) Business Grants Aren’t Real:

Of course, they’re real. This can easily be verified by going to http://www.Grants.gov – a government sponsored web site that reveals all the federally funded grant opportunities available. Even more, one can check with their local (state, county and city) officials to find out about their grant opportunities. Business grants are very real.

2) Business Grants Are Only Given To People With Business Degrees:

This couldn’t be further from the truth. Very few grant opportunities require that a person have a business degree. In fact, many of them don’t even require that you have business experience.

3) Business Grants Aren’t Given To Minorities:

Wrong again. There are tons of grants that are designed for minority-owned businesses. Even more, women are considered minorities too – and there are plenty of grants for women.

4) Business Grants Are Too Hard To Get:

Obtaining a business grant does require some work, and definitely some patience. It can involve a lengthy application, some tedious modifications to a business plan, and even some face-to-face meetings. However, many agree that its nothing close to rocket science.

5) Funding For Business Grants Has Been Drastically Reduced:

Reduced, yes. Drastically, no. What funding doesn’t get reduced in a bad economy? Despite this, there are still tons of opportunities available. So stop making excuses, and go get them.

The National Institute of Business Grants (http://www.Business-Grants.com) provides free tips, advice, and frequently asked questions pertaining to business grants.

Demystifying The Requirements For Certified Nurse Assistant Programs

When a person wants to work with nurses to help sick people in a support role, the right kind of training has to be obtained first. Entering into certified nurse assistant programs will get you the kind of education that is needed in order to do this kind of work. Courses instruct what you need to know in order to establish yourself as an intricate part of the health care team.

Often times if you are already working at a health care facility, they may offer this program to its employees for free. When you have to go to a different place for the training, you will be required to pay for it yourself. Either way, when you decide you want to do this type of work, you have to go looking for the training.

Some post secondary schools offer the training you might need in order to secure this type of employment. Each program has their own determination for how long the course will take to complete. Once you are finished, you will take an exam that if passed will allow you to become certified.

Some of the programs that are offered focus on certain kinds of patient care. While others provide a general overview of what patients will need, they all cover basic responsibilities that a nurses aide might need throughout their career. Often the training is geared towards the type of support nurses will require of them.

Obviously, instruction of how the body works will be covered in this training. Other things that you most certainly will need to know include how to give good personal care to a patient, and how to properly record information pertaining to their progress. Skills that can better assist the nursing staff are also part of your learning experience.

Some other things that are important for support care students to learn is how to collect samples from a patient. The importance of labeling specimens and their proper care is taught, as well as how to send them to the appropriate place. Additionally, the safety aspects of working with sick people and how not to spread infection is instructed.

Health care careers are a special calling; if you do not love what you are doing, you will not like the job. If you go through certified nurse assistant programs, sometimes doing this job will help you decide if you want to go further in your career. If nothing else, knowing how important excellent patient care is to the well being of the people you are caring for is important.
