Training Overview
Master 2 CFR 200. Avoid or pass a federal grant cost audit.
This year, nonprofits are undergoing audits of their compliance with Uniform Guidance (2 CFR 200). Under these federal grant rules, you must comply with the complex requirements for making, tracking, and documenting purchases. You must avoid missteps to protect your agency and its funding.
