Do you know what to do when you receive a Notice of Award? Is the award budget being managed as it should?

 

Using engaging visual design, light animation, and recorded online demonstrations, Grants Works teaches you how the Notice of Award serves as the bedrock for successful and effective grant management.

(This is MODULE 2)

What is it about?

The Federal Grant Management Training series is a self-guided, three-video training series designed to provide government grantees with the information needed to ensure the successful and compliant management of federal grants and cooperative agreements. This is the second module in the training series. 

If you have ever been stymied by the requirements of a government grant, this is the training that will help simplify the process. 

Successful federal grant management begins with understanding the terms, conditions, regulatory, statutory and other requirements of the award. We will review central sections of a standard Notice of Award, understand the difference between a budget period and a period of performance and review the award budget.

We will also review the Terms and Conditions of the award. 

That is where you will find relevant Federal regulations and policies, critical information such as your reporting requirements, and general requirements such as when you are required to seek prior approval, award termination guidelines, and general instructions on how to initiate drawdowns.
