Current and Pending/Other Support: Updates to NIH and NSF Requirements and Institutional Approaches 

April 25, 2023
2:00 – 3:30 pm EDT * Webinar
3:35 – 4:30 pm EDT * After the Show * Talk with the Faculty Directly!

Over the last several years, federal agencies have worked to clarify disclosure requirements, partly due to directives in federal law and policy.  Charged by the National Science and Technology Council’s Research Security Subcommittee, NIH and NSF have been leading a multi-agency effort to create common disclosure forms, which include Current and Pending/Other Support.  This webinar will cover the context in which NIH and NSF have made updates to their Current and Pending/Other Support formats, as well as go through specific changes made to each agency’s forms.  Jean and Michelle will share the current state of the multi-agency efforts and talk about the future of their agencies’ formats.  The webinar will also describe institutional approaches to updated agency requirements.

Format of webinar: 90-minute presentation, followed by 55 minutes of discussion.

Learning Objectives:

• Participants will understand the context for changes to NIH and NSF Current and Pending/Other Support documents. 
• Participants will review updates that NIH and NSF have made to requirements for Current and Pending/Other Support documents. 
• Participants will learn about how institutions have adjusted their practices and approaches to comply with updated requirements.

Participants receive 1.5 hours of continuing education credits.

A Boat-Builder’s Guide: Budgeting Salaries for Sea-Worthy Research 

March 23, 2023
2:00 – 3:30 pm EST * Webinar
3:35 – 4:30 pm EST * After the Show * Talk with the Faculty Directly!

In this webinar, we will conduct a deep dive into salary budgets.

Material will explore the intersection of effort and payroll, budgeting for non-faculty personnel, conflicts of interest, and other auditing concerns. We will address the budget lifecycle, exploring how the pre-award stage lays groundwork for the post-award journey. We’ll discuss budgeting considerations that can set the path for project success or lead to unintended consequences and challenges that last even after closeout.

The webinar will serve participants at many levels of research administration. New research administrators learn how to effectively create a budget with strong fundamentals. Experienced research administrators may study challenging budget issues and think through solutions. Departmental administrators will receive takeaways to assist their work with faculty and central administration. Central administrators will gain insight into the process and how to better engage departmental or faculty partners to improve budgeting and budget review. 

Format of webinar: 90-minute presentation, followed by 55 minutes of discussion.

Participants will:

• Understand how the budgeting of salaries helps to operationalize a project and set it for ‘smooth sailing.’ 
• Get a better understanding of the details needed in successful personnel budgets. 
• Understand how to address key issues with faculty members when discussing salaries. 
• Receive concrete takeaways that will be useful for any research administrator working with budgeted salaries.

Outline: Questioning the Budget: Salaries

Checklist Questions:

1. The Crew: Who will be on this project?
2. Man the Stations: What will each person be doing on the project?
3. Watching the Stars: When will they need to do the work on the project?

December 5, 2022
2:00 – 3:30 pm EDT * Webinar
3:35 – 4:30 pm EDT * After the Show * Talk with the Faculty Directly!

Working with faculty to assign the cost of resources to a project poses a challenge, especially when those resources benefit multiple (yet highly related!) projects. Articulating a solution to distribute costs among projects that is acceptable to sponsor, institution, and PI is one of the trickiest in research administration.  You may know general guard rails; but, is the approach defendable? Come join our panel for the presentation and follow-on “Ask the Speaker” session addressing the allocation definition and acceptable practices. In addition to informative background, the panel will work through case studies that may feel instantly familiar and challenge you to produce clever solutions.

Financial Reporting at the Departmental Level and Strategies for Successful Collaboration with the Central Office 

October 27, 2022
2:00 – 3:30 pm EDT * Webinar
3:35 – 4:30 pm EDT * After the Show * Talk with the Faculty Directly!

Central offices take responsibility for submitting official institutional Financial Reports to sponsors; however, ensuring the data is accurate requires a partnership with the PI and their Departmental Research Administrator/s. There could be pending transactions, commitments, adjustments that the department has submitted but that have not cleared the financial system. There could be pending requests for budget changes or extensions. Departmental Research Administrators often have information that the central office is not privy to, so communication before and during the Financial Report preparation is essential. In this Webinar, we will discuss best communication practices between central and departmental offices related to financial management and reporting.

Format of webinar: 90-minute presentation, followed by 55 minutes of discussion.

• Identify areas of risk in Financial Reporting
• Learn best practices for ensuring an efficient process and data integrity in Financial Reports
• Share tips for effective cross-departmental communication and collaboration

Successfully Onboarding Your Staff in the Virtual World 

October 13, 2022
2:00 – 3:30 pm EDT * Webinar
3:35 – 4:30 pm EDT * After the Show * Talk with the Faculty Directly!

Onboarding newly hired employees includes welcoming and successfully integrating them into your office. Introducing new, remote team members to the culture while helping them understand how their role and individuals they support impact the overall organization involves a multimodal approach. Since the pandemic, hiring remote staff requires innovative ways of communicating, collaborating, thinking and training. This webinar will provide organizational socialization strategies and tips from three different perspectives to ensure new staff are set up for success and retention.

Format of webinar: 90-minute presentation, followed by 55 minutes of discussion.

Upon completion of the webinar, participants will be able to:

• Analyze gaps and identify challenges in current onboarding structure
• Create a successful virtual onboarding framework
• Utilize available resources and develop new ones

Participants receive 1.5 hours of continuing education credits.

You can access your certificate from the box on the right side of the screen, after filling out the webinar evaluation.

NCURA webinars use the GoToWebinar platform. To confirm that you are ready to participate, please test your browser before joining the webinar, or review the more detailed system requirements.

• It is recommended that you use a PC or MAC with an updated Internet Browser either Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Edge or Safari.  
• Make sure you have pop-ups blockers disabled in your Internet browser settings.
• Wifi is not recommended. The problem with WiFi is signal strength can vary causing bandwidth to increase or decrease.
• We recommend a wired connection. A wired connection gives a consistent signal and consistent bandwidth. A wired connection provides a better experience.
• It's better for organizations with low bandwidth to only have the webinar running on 1 computer in a conference room than having 10 individual people running the session on 10 computers at their desks.
• Audio (sound) is projected through your computer speakers. Be sure your computer is equipped with speakers so you can hear the presenters.
