GrantForward Replaces SPIN for Funding Opportunity Searches

EKU’s Sponsored Programs Information Network (SPIN) subscription has been replaced with a new funding opportunity database called GrantForward.  The new system is available to EKU faculty, staff, and students, and you can sign up for an account in less than a minute.  GrantForward comes to us with cost savings and more robust features, and we are excited to make it available as a new resource to assist with managing the process of identifying external funding opportunities. 

The Funding Sources page of our website has been updated with a link to GrantForward and resources for using the system, including a Researcher Welcome Guide.  We encourage you to read through the guide and create a researcher profile so that you can receive automated notifications. 

Please contact Krista Whitaker with questions about using GrantForward or to schedule a meeting to discuss the project ideas for which you wish to seek funding.
