The Certificate in Proposal Writing offers a comprehensive and flexible curriculum for those interested in learning effective proposal management and persuasive writing.
The program is delivered entirely online, through four 8-week courses that can be completed in one year or less. Students will learn the essential skills for writing winning proposals, including how to conduct customer research, develop persuasive arguments, and manage the proposal development process from start to finish.
UNT's Department of Technical Communication partnered with the Association of Proposal Management Professionals to create a credential that prepared students to take their place as leaders in the field of proposal writing.
These are the four courses you would be taking:
- TECM 5170: Grants and Proposals
- TECM 5185: Principles of Technical Communication
- TECM 5190: Style and Technical Writing
- TECM 5200: Digital Content Strategies for Communication Professionals
