This course unpacks the Uniform Guidance (2 CFR 200) as the backbone of federal grants compliance. Participants translate regulations into day-to-day steps from pre-award eligibility and risk reviews through post-award financial management, subrecipient oversight, and audit/closeout.
By the end, participants will be able to summarize key legislation involved in federal assistance; explain the structure and intent of the Uniform Guidance; distinguish assistance types and award instruments; and apply core administrative, financial, and audit requirements across the lifecycle.
Designed for federal program/grants staff, pass-through entities, and recipient personnel who need a working understanding of 2 CFR 200 to write policy, design procedures, or manage awards effectively.
Students should have prior experience in federal grants management, including familiarity with award lifecycle stages, basic financial management principles, and compliance or oversight practices related to federal assistance programs.
