The certification program will assist research and non-research sponsored program administrators and their supporting staff who manage grant and contract accounts in the fields to better understand the proposal and contract preparation, research compliance issues, budgeting, cost sharing, indirect cost returns, program income, electronic tools and post-award management and reporting.
