Conflict of Interest Requirements Beyond the Procurement Rules

December 5, 2024

Roughly 9 years ago, the then-new Uniform Guidance required in 2 C.F.R. § 200.112 that each "Federal awarding agency...establish conflict of interest policies for Federal awards." This broad requirement extended well beyond the traditional conflict of interest requirements found in the procurement section (2 CFR § 200.318(c)). In this webinar, Managing Partner Edward (“Ted”) Waters will use a case study method to deepen knowledge in this critical area and provide practical guidance on drafting and implementing compliant as well as functional Standard of Conduct / Conflict of Interest policies and practices.

Please note: This webinar is offered as a complimentary product to all Federal Grants Training Members. For more information on our Federal Grants Training Membership, click here or contact us.
