eCivis Announces KnowledgeBase Online Grants Education and Reference Resource

KnowledgeBase is the latest addition to the growing Grants Network community
of online applications and resources for grant-active organizations

PASADENA, Calif., Jan. 22 /PRNewswire/ -- eCivis, the leader in improving
grants performance, today announced the addition of KnowledgeBase to its
growing Grants Network community of online applications and resources for
grant-active organizations. KnowledgeBase is an online software-as-a-service
(SaaS) offering that provides online training courses specifically developed
to meet the needs of the grants community; short, easy-to-understand
publications written by professionals involved in all aspects of the grants
process; and professional service offerings that extend the online experience
to your work site as desired.
"KnowledgeBase gives our team members what they have requested the most:
an easy, efficient tool to help them strengthen their grant proposal skills in
any subject, whenever they want to learn it," said Amy Shankland, Grant
Coordinator for the City of Noblesville, Indiana. "Whether a team member is a
beginner or has more advanced grant skills, this program quickly offers
valuable information and training."
eCivis KnowledgeBase contains a Grant Skills section, designed to assist
individuals in increasing and improving their grant-related knowledge and
skills. The Organizational Development section focuses on the characteristics
of a successful grants organization and provides instruction on how to build
one. Both sections provide materials for beginners and advanced users. A
Publications Search tool allows users to search the extensive library of
publications, and a Glossary is provided to help users understand the
sometimes confusing world of grants.
"KnowledgeBase fills a critical gap for our Grants Network online
community," said Omie Ismail, eCivis CEO. "More than 80% of government
staffers who research, write, and manage grants have had little or no grants
training. Even veteran grants professionals may have gaps in their knowledge
or organizational inefficiencies. KnowledgeBase can dramatically change the
landscape and tenor of an organization's grants activity by raising efficiency
and skill levels, resulting in greater success and satisfaction from all
stakeholders."
