Grant Connections - October 2013

The Federal government shutdown is significantly impacting the entire grants community right now. For our next Grant Connections gathering, we’ll be discussing the issues associated with the shutdown as well as continuing our discussion of electronic approvals of PSRSs. We’ll continue with a discussion format rather than formal presentations. Please join us to get your questions answered and to share your experiences. Besides sharing ideas and promoting consistency in applying policies and procedures, this will be an excellent opportunity to network with others in the grants community. It’s so much easier to communicate with someone once you’ve met them face-to-face.

October 23, 2013 from 11:00 a.m. – noon
