Planning Your Grant Deliverables

Secrets of Workshop Coordination

Objectives

• Be able to identify and implement key activities such as:

– Developing a year-long workshop plan to ensure successful completion of grant deliverables

– Tracking coordination tasks to ensure successful workshop implementation

Grant Deliverables

• 220 Completers for Chronic Pain

Self-Management Program

– Participants that complete 4 of 6 sessions of the workshop

How Many Workshops do we need?

• Determine approximately how many completers you expect per workshop

– CPSMP is a new program, so we expect 7 completers per workshop

• Formula:

– # Completers (deliverable) ÷ divided by # completers per workshop

Workshops Required

• Deliverable: 220 completers

• Completers per workshop: 7

• Formula

220 ÷ 7 = 31.4 workshops

• During the grant year, we need 31 CPSMP workshops

Mapping out Workshops

• Spread the workshops over 4 quarters

• Reminder:

– November and December are challenging months for workshops

– January and February workshops have stronger participation rates
