Abstract
<p>This handbook provides a comprehensive A-Z of what you need to do to<br />prepare a robust Office for Learning and Teaching (OLT) grant application<br />and is arguably the first of its type in the Australian context. Its release is<br />set against the backdrop of a range of learning and teaching grant initiatives<br />deployed by Australian national governments over the past 20 years. The<br />Office for Learning and Teaching (OLT), for example, allocated approximately<br />$8 million to its grants program in 2012. This commitment builds on the<br />legacy of similar levels of funding allocations from the Australian Learning<br />and Teaching Council that has mobilised and enabled systemic change and<br />improvement in learning and teaching in Australian universities in previous<br />years.<br />The handbook is designed for those committed to making a real difference<br />in learning and teaching through an Office for Learning and Teaching<br />grant, whether as a first time or veteran grant applicant. Its content spans<br />generating ideas, project planning, considering teams and collaboration,<br />to the budget and final submission. The handbook’s eBook format, plain<br />language, hyperlinks, lift-out quotes, templates, resource materials and,<br />most importantly, direct intersection with OLT grant requirements, makes it<br />an essential companion guide when drafting an OLT grant application.<br />As the Manager of Queensland University of Technology’s Awards and<br />Grants service with more than 20 years experience in providing advice,<br />writing successful grant applications, contributing to and co-leading national<br />learning and teaching grant projects, I can say with confidence — if you are<br />seeking to develop a persuasive OLT Grant application start and finish with<br />this handbook by your side.</p>
