MEMBERSHIP FAQs

Is now a good time to join NGMA?

Yes! The grants management landscape has grown exponentially and has been changing rapidly since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. While the federal government issued much-needed relief funds totaling more than $150 billion, the new funding and compliance regulations that came with it created heavier workloads, new challenges and a shift in the way work is completed for grants professionals. Employees working in grants management need a centralized source for training, professional development and networking to ensure efficiency, compliance and success. NGMA is that source!

What if I have restrictions that don’t allow me to outright join NGMA?

Consider purchasing any product or service from NGMA. For example: Register for a webinar. Purchase a GMBoK Guide. Our pricing model for non-members includes an optional one-year individual membership built into the price of all our products and services. While you may opt out of membership (the price does not change if you opt out), this is a simple way to obtain an NGMA membership.

Can I use grants funding to pay for my membership?

Short answer: It depends on the grant. Training and education costs for employee development may be allowable under 2 CFR §200.473. Check your agency’s policies and procedures to determine if signing up for an NGMA webinar or training is an allowable cost.

My organization has several employees who want to join NGMA. Is there a group rate?

Yes! NGMA offers a discounted group/agency membership rate for groups of five (5) or more. Rates and application information can be found in the MEMBERSHIP RATES section.
