Your takeaways:
You'll walk away with:
Webinar How you create and maintain your grant budget is essential to meeting funder reporting requirements and maintaining compliance with internal financial policies and processes. Accurate and comprehensive grant budgets and spend plans are key for an organization to effectively scope and implement their projects, empowering them to track and monitor progress as well as identify risks that need to be mitigated along the way.
You'll walk away with:
Webinar While closeout may come at the end of the award program, preparing for it starts on day one. Closeout requires reconciliation of both expenditures and activities against the budget and within the parameters of the award agreement. Ultimately, you must show that you spent your funds in a way that enabled you to achieve your documented goals. To effectively demonstrate this at closeout, you must have processes in place from the start and establish periodic checkpoints to ensure that your program stays on track and activities, as well as expenses, are appropriate and documented.
You'll walk away with:
Webinar Effectively getting ahead of grant management challenges requires a combination of the right processes and the right technology. The first three webinars in this series address the processes. This fourth webinar provides you the opportunity to see how a grant management system (GMS) enables those processes and much more.
