Description
This one-day elective course is designed to cover grant-related financial actions, including but not limited to budget review, required recipient reporting, and audits. Most federal personnel deal with more than one type of recipient during their career and many recipients sub-grant funds to organizations subject to a different set of cost principles. In this course, students gain a firm knowledge of the concepts central to all versions of cost principles, as well as practical experience applying each set of cost principles to assistance agreement situations.
