Grant Management

During this first session, Dr. Jennifer Coffey laid the groundwork for the community by framing GrantWISE as a space for fiscal and programmatic excellence in discretionary grants. She highlighted the purpose of the group, upcoming meeting dates, and several core topics we’ll return to over time — including procurement, internal controls, subrecipient monitoring, cash management, budgeting resources, and APR-related budget explanations.

The purpose of this webinar will be: (1) to discuss the contents of the Dear Colleague letter included in your APR package, (2) highlight areas that have challenged APR writers in the past, (3) share where you can find resources and exemplars, (4) and answer your questions.

What You Can Do to Improve Your Program Measure Submission

Shauna Harps and Brad Keller, who evaluate SPDG APR Program Measures, describe best practices is writing and describing your measures. Please come prepared with questions about your APR.

Jennifer Coffey presented the results of the most recent Program Measure/GPRA review.  As a reminder our contractor, CIPP, reviews projects’ program measures if they are in year 2 or later in their project implementation.

Jennifer shared the overall SPDG Program results. Your Project Officer will share your individual results.
