Why is this assessment relevant?
As health professionals you will have opportunity to apply for grants as part of an organisation or an individual to run health promotion projects, research strategies and healthy living programs. Each grant application will require different levels of information, however they all want to know: who you are, what you want to do and why you want to do it, what you hope to achieve, how much will it cost and how long will it take. This assessment presents you with the opportunity to apply for a mock grant to run a health program in a rural and remote area.
