We faced the daunting prospect of assembling a federal grant by ourselves—something we’d struggle to do at all, let alone well.  However, with Trivium's support, the process and product were fantastic.

Educate Maine is deeply grateful to Trivium Consulting for their expert guidance and partnership in developing a competitive grant proposal. Their strategic insight, responsiveness, and commitment to our mission made a meaningful difference.

Trivium Consulting provided a whole spectrum of services from strategizing and content ideation to helping us identify and build new national partnerships. Once we received our grant, they also stepped in to support the launch and project manager capacity building. Very collaborative!

Working with Trivium gave me the clarity and guidance I needed to tailor each grant proposal to its unique audience and priorities. Their support not only kept the process focused and on schedule, but also helped me grow as a grant writer myself.

Trivium Consulting's expertise in grant development connected NISOD with Carnegie Mellon University's Technology for Effective and Efficient Learning Lab, resulting in a successful NSF grant designed to advance innovative teaching methods for CS and IT programs at community colleges. Without Trivium, NISOD would never have been able to secure such a substantial grant.

Trivium worked with us on a DOL Strengthening Community College proposal which allowed us to reorganize into a sustainable model for supporting incarcerated populations, and also helped mentor our newly-hired grant writer leading to her great success. To say that our relationship with Trivium has “made an impact” would be a grievous understatement.
