The goal of the session is to provide
participants with valuable and useful resources that are critical to the implementation of effective grants management systems,
and to help minimize the common pitfalls often faced by new managers. The
session topics are selected from the NGMA Grants Management Body of Knowledge (GMBoK) and focus on the grant life-cycle: pre-award, award and post award (including closeout).
Workshop content is based on survey responses from supervisors of new grant managers that identified common areas in
which novice grants managers lack the necessary skill/ knowledge, or face the greatest challenges. Through the use of case studies, participants will apply the cornerstones of grant management and compliance
to gain insight to the complexities of project oversight.
This workshop is intended
for individuals with less than three years experience in grants management. It
is designed for and presented by practitioners who have “walked the walk”.
Workshop Objectives
-Expose participants to the fundamental principles of grant management and compliance.
-Demonstrate how these principles are used to assess and determine project progress, as well as possible audit risks.
-Provide guidance to determine how to balance limited resources when managing and troubleshooting the grant life cycle.
