REMINDER:  Please join *Research Administrators INC* to view NCURA's
90-minute pre-recorded presentation entitled, "*RFP Review and Best
Practices*."



Request for Proposals (RFP) can be intimidating. They don’t all look the
same and they may not fit the mold of traditional submissions.  It walks,
talks and smells like a grant, but is it a grant or even a contract?  Oh
my, it has language in there I have not seen before!  It is asking me to
sign off on terms at the proposal phase.  Can I do that?  It does not
matter what level of experience you have; RFPs can be overwhelming.  As we
pivot onto more diversified funding, this session will be beneficial to
understand how to help our faculty interpret and maneuver around the RFP.
We would like to help you become comfortable with reading, interpreting,
and translating RFPs.



*When*: Tuesday, October 7, 2025
