Training Roughly nine years ago, the then-new Uniform Guidance required in 2 CFR § 200.112 that each "Federal awarding agency...establish conflict of interest policies for Federal awards." This broad requirement extended well beyond the traditional conflict of interest requirements found in the procurement section (2 CFR § 200.318(c)). In this webinar, Managing Partner Ted Waters will use a case study method to deepen knowledge in this critical area and provide practical guidance on drafting and implementing compliant as well as functional Standard of Conduct / Conflict of Interest policies and practices.
