Navigate the post-award grant process with confidence!


When: Available On-Demand!

Cost: $150

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

Grant recipients have an ethical and legal responsibility to follow established guidelines and best practices when closing out awards and preparing for audit. In the Award Closeout & Audit webinar, the presenters will highlight these responsibilities and will share action steps for meeting all federal award closeout requirements. Proactive strategies and reactive solutions aligned to the Uniform Grant Guidance (2 CFR 200) will be discussed. Additionally, strategies to prepare nonprofit organizations for smooth federal audits will be discussed. Although presented from the perspective of federal funding, this session is also beneficial for smaller organizations that currently receive private foundation funding as many of the same concepts are applicable to organizations of all sizes.

Learning Objectives:

  • Gain awareness of ethical and legal responsibilities for grant auditing activities; including identification of types of audits
