Please join Research Administrators INC today, November 15th, at Noon to view the webinar entitled, "You're Driving Me Crazy! Investigating and Resolving Issues that Irk our Pre- and Post-Award Counterparts" (which was presented at the NCURA Annual Meeting last month).  It runs approx. 1 hour 15 min.

Description
As a Pre-Award administrator, your actions at the proposal stage may unintentionally set your co-workers up for burdensome Post-Award management. Likewise, Post-Award administrators may unintentionally undermine the efforts of their Pre-Award colleagues. And, if you're a lifecycle grant manager, your efforts at the Pre-Award stage definitely impact your Post-Award self! So how do you avoid driving yourself and your colleagues crazy? This session will explore common pitfalls in the areas of cost sharing, rebudgeting, prior approval requests, contract negotiation, reporting, and other areas of research administration that affect both Pre- and Post-Award offices. With this information in hand, this webinar will offer recommendations for how to
avoid and/or resolve these issues and improve efficiencies for all parties.

Learning Objectives

  *   Participants will be able to identify areas and situations where action in the Pre-Award or Post-Award stage has a ripple effect for the other side.
  *   Participants will explore alternative actions and processes to improve efficiencies in your work.
  *   Participants will learn how to promote better relationships and increase happiness among your teams.

Presenters
Jaclyn Lucas, Beckman Research Institute of the City of Hope
Melissa Giglio, Harvard Medical School
