Before taking GPAs Next Level Federal Grants Training (NLFGT) course, my approach to federal grants could best be described as the sink or swim method. NLFGT is a year-long training course taught by the federal grant whisperer Cheryl Kester that is designed for both experienced and newbie grants professionals.

The grant writer cost in 2025 varies widely depending on experience, project type, and scope of work. Rates for simple foundation proposals typically range from $300 to $3,000, while complex federal grants may require significantly higher investments. Professionals with 10+ successful grants start at $75 and can ask up to $125.

Is the grant renewable or one-time only?
