^aModel abbreviations: GUMSHOE, grant writing uncovered: maximizing strategies, help, opportunities, experiences; STAR, steps toward academic research fellowship program; P3, proposal preparation program; NU. Northwestern University grant writers coaching group; NE, northeastern hub; SE, southeastern hub.

^bExperience in grant proposal development.

^cCriteria for case inclusion in this study were a full set of pre- and posttest assessment data and a grant submission status update (submitted, still writing, or abandoned) from a 6-month follow-up survey.

^dThe low proportion of eligible trainees for this study for this southeastern hub variation of the NU model is explained by the fact that the self-efficacy assessment tool was not fully administered across the first cohort members prior to the program kick-off event.
