The webinar will be led by Paul Tuttle, Grants Consultant at Hanover Research. Paul began in research and proposal development at NCAT in 2001 as a funding opportunities specialist and managed proposal development at WSSU and UNCG through 2010. From 2011 to 2013, he was a Hanover Research grants consultant, providing proposal development and strategic consulting to clients in four sectors (higher education, K-12, healthcare, and nonprofits). In 2013, he was invited to become Hanover’s first Managing Grants Consultant, supervising a 16-person team. In 2015, he returned to NCAT as the Director of Proposal Development; in 2022, he returned to Hanover as a grants consultant.
Using his MA in English (with a concentration in persuasive writing), he has helped investigators and program directors obtain over $180 million in external funding from nearly all federal funding agencies and many of the major foundations. A member of NC RAA, NORDP, NCURA, and SRAI, he is often an invited speaker at those organizations’ conferences.
