Who Should Attend: Nonprofit professionals who want to be prepared to navigate the federal grant process with confidence.

While most people think of the financial management of a federal grant as the area with the greatest challenges or newest requirements, there are also many non-financial requirements that must be considered when managing the implementation of a federal grant, including, but not limited to:

1) Hiring staff and changing program directors
2) Data collection, storage, and reporting
3) Record retention
