Not everyone who works for a federally funded organization needs to be an expert on the requirements that affect the federal awards received by their employer. However, time and again, it’s been shown that even unintentional compliance mistakes by program staff members can have adverse consequences for an organization. And a look at the current highly charged federal fund atmosphere reveals that any instance of noncompliance could provide an excuse for award termination.
Understanding what the most common pitfalls are in implementing federal grant rules and how to avoid them is critical. This webinar will provide an alert, in laymen’s terms, about the key federal grant requirements that program managers need to know to do their part in reducing their organization’s noncompliance vulnerability.
We’ll cover these key requirements:
- Sources of grant policies
- Grant budget management
- Vetting of subrecipients and contractors
- Tests of grant cost allowability
- Sources of matching and cost sharing
- Procurement of goods and services
- Subrecipient monitoring
- Financial and performance reporting
- Audit preparation
