GRANT ONSITE TRAINING IN-SERVICE Instructor - Spencer Moore Division Director, Planning & Programs
Why Do We Need To Conduct On-sites? • Outside of initial grant training, on-sites are a means of addressing state and federal grant policies and training issues. • On-sites establish a “partnership” mentality with the grantee. • “Quick” and “Frequent” on-sites creates more accountability, and ultimately this leads to better project management by the grantee. • Federal requirement
GOHS ON-SITE POLICY GOHS Planners MUST conduct a minimum of one on-site visit per year with grantees receiving more than $25,000 in grant funds.
GOHS ON-SITE POLICY • Grants up to 24, 999.00, 50% must have an onsite • GOHS will conduct desktop reviews of all grantees as a means ensuring compliance with state and federal regulations
TROUBLE SIGNS Grantee fails to submit claims and reports on time. Grantee systematically submits incorrect claims. Grantee submits questionable invoices or back up documentation. Grantee fails to comply with any verbal or written instructions by the planner. Project Director is not the actual person completing claims and paperwork. Any changes in project personnel When Should an On-Site Be Conducted?
ROUTINE Grantee has a kick-off event. Grantee has a special event or special meeting. When Should an On-Site Be Conducted?
