Reevaluating Your Policies & Procedures

To align with OMB’s revisions to the uniform guidance, recipients of grants and other federal financial assistance must re-evaluate — and most likely, update — their existing internal policies and procedures. In addition, entities and organizations that received special or emergency pandemic funding also need to ensure their recordkeeping and reporting practices follow agency requirements and guidance. This is not a one-and-done process; policy and procedure reviews should be conducted at least annually.

This eLearning course helps grant recipients balance their operational practices to ensure they stay in compliance with federal regulations and avoid audit findings that could cause them to lose their federal award funding.

In this e-learning course, grant expert Dan Durst, provides clear guidance for updating daily operational practices, policies and procedures to align with requirements affecting virtually every area of grants management.
