Two-Day Uniform Grants Guidance Training

Our popular “Navigating the OMB Super Circular” training returns! Learn how to safely navigate the major administrative requirements, cost principles, and audit standards of the Office of Management and Budget’s Uniform Guidance (better known as the “OMB Super Circular”) when you join us in Orlando, Florida, on September 26 and 27, 2019.

The Uniform Grants Guidance (or Super Circular) touches all aspects of Federal grants management, and failure to follow the Uniform Grants Guidance can result in serious compliance issues, including disallowances and even loss of grant funding.  However, navigating this complex framework can be difficult, but our two-day training in Orlando will help you set the right course.  Regardless of whether your organization is a pass-through entity, grantee, or subrecipient, you need to understand the Super Circular’s requirements and ensure that your organization’s policies and practices comply with the Uniform Guidance.  The “Navigating the OMB Super Circular” conference on September 26-27, 2019, will explain the important administrative rules, cost principles, and audit requirements, that comprise the Uniform Guidance, and how to implement them.  In addition, our revised curriculum will also discuss recent and proposed changes affecting the Super Circular and grants management to keep you up-to-date with current requirements and expectations. 

By attending this special, two-day training opportunity in Orlando, you will learn how to better manage your grants while avoiding the most common compliance issues.  This updated training will provide detailed explanations of the Uniform Grants Guidance’s key requirements for all types of grant-funded organizations, including nonprofits, colleges and universities, hospitals, tribal organizations, and units of government.   When you attend the “Navigating the OMB Super Circular” training conference in Orlando, you will learn about the following topics:
