Dear all,

Due to popular demand ALT is repeating the following workshop that 
ran earlier this year:

'Bidding and winning: the secrets of successful learning technology 
project bids '
Wednesday, 24 January 2007, 09:30 - 15:00
National College of School Leadership (NCSL), Nottingham

"The workshop was without doubt the most valuable one I have ever 
attended. The focus was crystal clear, you showed us what works and 
what doesn’t and you got us to think. Mark Stiles' input was simply 
excellent: you never get a Macro-level picture unless someone like 
him shares his experience. Both the other colleagues' input was 
appropriate, clearly expressed, well-prepared and will be a great 
help in writing real bids, as opposed to talking about it. All of 
this means that I can set a clear agenda for my own development and 
help my institution to evolve realist targets for me. Money very well 
spent.'' 
~Ian Simpson, St Martin's College

Places are limited so to avoid disappointment please register to 
attend asap: http://www.alt.ac.uk/workshop_detail.php?e=228

Further information can be found below.

Kind regards,
Hayley

Bidding and winning: the secrets of successful learning technology 
project bids 

Presenter(s): 
Jeff Haywood, University of Edinburgh
Seb Schmoller, ALT 
Mark Stiles, Staffordshire University

Overview:
Project bids are time-consuming and should not be undertaken lightly; 
this workshop will give tips on how to avoid wasted effort and dashed 
hopes. Three experienced learning technology project managers, who 
have run projects with funds from the JISC and other sources, and who 
have judged bids written by others, will share their perspectives on 
writing convincing bids for funds. 

Topics to be covered:
*When to bid and when not;
*Timescales;
*Getting your team together;
*Partnerships; 
*Presenting your bid; 
*Learning from failure.

Expected outcomes:
Participants will have a clearer understanding of the real cost of 
constructing bids, the choices and pitfalls involved in selecting 
partners and constructing bid consortia, the important things to 
remember when writing bids, and issues to consider when looking to 
create projects intended to have “a life beyond the project”.
After the event the presenters will circulate further resources and 
help, covering points raised during the session panel.

Who should attend?
Anyone who plans to bid for funds from national or international 
sources for learning technology projects, including project managers, 
learning technologists, teachers, lecturers and senior managers.

Cost
The cost includes all refreshments and a three course lunch:
Members of ALT: £150;
Non-members of ALT: £250.
