Webinar Details

Prerequisites: Some knowledge of federal grant management and audit requirements is helpful

Recommended Field of Study: Specialized Knowledge and Applications

Program Knowledge Level: Basic

Advanced Preparation: None

After more than a year of intense review and revision, the Office of Management and Budget has released its long-awaited overhaul of  Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (2 C.F.R. Part 200). When work began on the hefty collection of grants guidancepolicies, OMB committed to resolving previous interpretation arguments, filling policy gaps, eliminating low-value procedural steps, and delivering on burden reduction. 

It was a pretty tall order, but it looks like OMB might actually have achieved some of those objectives. The extensive comments OMB received on its draft proposal provided the roadmap to craft revisions released on April 4 that:

  • Update dollar thresholds for single audit coverage and management of grant-acquired property
  • Reduce the need for future policy “band-aids” like long lists of Frequently Asked Questions
  • Provide clearer guidance about how to differentiate between subrecipients and contractors and what to do next
  • Clean up the previously disjointed standards for procuring goods and services
  • Reinforce policies assuring fairer indirect cost recovery 
  • This webinar will alert you to what's changed and what hasn't, and provide tips to kick start your implementation of the new rules.

This webinar will alert you to what’s changed and what hasn’t, and provide tips to kick start your implementation of the new rules.
