To assist RDOs and EDDs in the transition to the revised rules contained in the Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles and Audit Requirements issued by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and codified in Title 2 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Part 200, the NADO Research Foundation is sponsoring a free four-part webinar series through our Economic Development District Community of Practice (EDD CoP) that will provide detailed coverage of key aspects of the new policies. The series will be presented by Bob Lloyd, who has conducted NADO sponsored training programs and has provided extensive technical support on the numerous comments that NADO has submitted to OMB urging policy features that recognize the unique role that RDOs play in many federal grant programs. The four-part series will be held virtually on Zoom on the afternoons of September 11th and 26th, and October 2nd and 9th. Each webinar will be recorded and available for viewing at a later date.
