By the time the need for a one-pager, infographic, or website arises, they don\u2019t have the funds to accomplish their communications goals. That\u2019s why our team is partnering with the NC&#160;State Proposal Development Unit (PDU) to create guidelines (COMING SOON) for incorporating CALS Communications\u2019 services into your grant proposals. In this guide, you will find a list of services most commonly used by faculty, how they can benefit a project or program, and budgetary recommendations, all of which can act as boilerplate language to be customized for your specific grant or proposal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to include CALS Communications into your proposal, but need more guidance, please contact us as at <a href=\"mailto:cals_communications@ncsu.edu\">cals_communications@ncsu.edu<\/a> for a customized budget recommendation based on your anticipated needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ncst-buttons\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-ncst-button is-style-secondary\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cals.ncsu.edu\/communications\/\" class=\"btn ncst-block__button-link\" data-ncst-lightbox=\"false\" data-ua-cat=\"Button Block\" data-ua-action=\"Button Click\" data-ua-label=\"https:\/\/cals.ncsu.edu\/communications\/\"><span class=\"text\">Return to top of page<\/span><span class=\"arrow-indicator\">\n<svg class=\"wp-block-ncst-wolficon wolficon\" role=\"img\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><use xlink:href=\"#wolficon-arrow-right-bold\" \/><\/svg>\n<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"ncst-labeled-section wp-block-ncst-featured-content ncst-featured-content is-card-style layout-two-column\">\n  <div class=\"ncst-labeled-section__background\">\n    <div class=\"ncst-labeled-section__container\">\n               <div class=\"ncst-labeled-section__header\">\n                      <h2 class=\"ncst-labeled-section__heading\">Resources<\/h2>\n                            <\/div>\n            <div class=\"ncst-labeled-section__content\">\n        \n<div id=\"all-resources\" class=\"wp-block-ncst-featured-content\"><a\n    class=\"ncst-content-card wp-block-ncst-content-card with-cta\"\n    href=\"https:\/\/cals.ncsu.edu\/communications\/cals-comm-101-workshops\/\"\n    data-ua-cat=\"Content Card\"\n    data-ua-action=\"Content Card Click\"\n    data-ua-label=https:\/\/cals.ncsu.edu\/communications\/cals-comm-101-workshops\/\n  >\n  \n\n    \n    <div class=\"content-card__text-container\">\n      \n                          <h3 class=\"content-card__headline\">CALS Comm Workshops<\/h3>\n              \n\n      \t      \t        <p class=\"content-card__teaser\">We host a monthly workshop for all departmental and unit communicators and communications enthusiasts.
