FOUNDANT Education Webinar

With the increasing availability of government grant money, many organizations are trying to figure out how to move along the grant readiness continuum to be more prepared to manage government grants (especially federal grants) after they have been awarded. This session will explain best practices in post-award grants management based on federal grant compliance, but with an eye on gradually transitioning from managing foundation and corporate grant awards to simple and complex federal grant projects.

Participants will learn about the following common compliance elements and methods to manage them:

• Time tracking
• Procurement, allowable expenses, and conflicts of interest
• Contracts and subawards
• Data management
• Subaward monitoring
