The Recovery Innovation Coordinator and Center of Excellence (RICCE), a program of the Democratic Training Institute, is partnering with the University of the Virgin Islands Center for Excellence in Leadership and Learning (UVI-CELL) to offer nonprofit professionals a free online workshop titled “Tools for Grant Award Implementation: Turning Awards into Achievements”. The workshop will take place on Thursday, Feb. 20, from 9 a.m. – 1 p.m. AST.
This practical workshop, conducted in English, is designed for nonprofit organization professionals, including Executive Directors, Grant Managers, Program Managers, Financial Officers, and Compliance Officers, who are responsible for managing grant-funded programs.
Participants have two flexible viewing options: they can join the online workshop from home or office, or, for those with limited internet access, attend the online viewing at one of the UVI campuses in St. Thomas, St. Croix, or St. John. Those attending UVI will have the benefit of enjoying refreshments and networking with nonprofit leaders and staff from UVI-CELL and RICCE from 8 a.m. – 8:45 a.m., before the workshop begins.
The 3.5-hour workshop will equip nonprofits with practical tools and real-world insights to implement grant-funded projects effectively. Participants will gain a step-by-step roadmap to turn grants into impactful, sustainable outcomes. Led by Isabel C. Fernández, a Certified Grant Management Specialist with over $58 million in secured federal funds, the workshop leverages her expertise in grant writing, compliance, and fund administration across sectors.
