Please join Forefront and BDO Nonprofit & Grantmaker Advisory for this virtual training and take a deeper dive into government funding for nonprofits covering compliance, indirect cost rates, policies and procedures, and audit readiness.

Managing government funding can seem overwhelming given the level of compliance requirements, especially if your nonprofit has little experience with government funding. This training will focus on what happens after your organization has been awarded the grant and will help break down some of the expectations that funding agencies have regarding stewardship of government funding. Particular attention will be paid to indirect cost rates, policies and procedures that nonprofits are generally expected to have, regulatory requirements, and how to prepare for the Single Audit.

This training is not aimed at an introductory level and is best suited for those who have some experience with government funding and want to learn more about compliance requirements and the Single Audit.

Key focus areas for this workshop will include:

Indirect cost rates
Policies and procedures to have to facilitate compliance to government grant terms
Post-award compliance functions and activities
Preparing for the Single Audit and what to expect

Intended Audience: Anyone seeking deeper understanding of the Uniform Guidance, government grant compliance, indirect cost rates, and audit readiness. This training is aimed primarily at those who have some familiarity with government funding but may not have gone through a Single Audit yet.
