Mission:

WISSEN, Inc. supports municipalities and higher education stakeholders in their efforts to create sustainable programming that is geared toward student success.

What We Do:

We identify municipality and campus strengths and weaknesses, help build new or existing programs, provide grant-readiness workshops tailored to clients’ needs, and write grant narratives (for regional, state, federal, and foundation opportunities) to secure vital funding those programs.

How We Do It:

WISSEN is different from our competition. We have deep experience and a positive track record of building programs, working with higher education leaders and municipal leaders, and delivering winning grants proposals. Unique to WISSEN is that we bring higher education expertise, a love of learning, and deep respect for the work of our clients. All WISSEN staff have MAs or PhDs. Our work is virtual, thereby keeping down costs.
