Upcoming Training

This year, many of our one-day training sessions are free to attend. We ask that when you are submitting your pre-registration forms that you complete them in their entirety, as we need all the information to process your registration. We appreciate your time and effort in submitting fully complete registration forms. There will not be an invoice sent for these free classes. We would like to ask that if you are unable to attend a training session, even the free classes, that you email our office (nyrwa@nyruralwater.org) to cancel at least three business days prior to the date of the class you are registered to attend. This will allow us to contact another student so they can attend and receive their needed contact hours.

Upcoming Webinar on Navigating Grant Funding: Municipal Success Stories

Join us to hear about successful strategies to access and manage grant funding from your peers. This webinar will highlight strategies from municipalities of various sizes, across New York State, have used to secure grant funding. Municipalities will share information such as how they access grant funds, what barriers they’ve had to overcome, lessons learned, the skill sets needed, and who are the key players necessary to access grant funding. 

Navigating Grant Funding Webinar: Wednesday, March 1st 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm

Click here to register: https://meetny.webex.com/weblink/register/r67136d86c6e6c72040e37d00a8fbef87

The goal of this webinar is to provide a peer to peer learning experience. Municipalities and their partners will share how they successfully access and manage grant funding and there will be a panel Q&A discussion at the end. We have selected municipalities of various sizes from different regions across the state to present their success stories. As I’m sure you are aware, capacity to access and manage grant funding at the municipal level is a statewide issue. We hope this webinar initiates ideas and conversations to get more municipalities access to grant funds.
