Considerations for Collaborations
March 10, 2025
2:00 – 3:30 pm ET * Webinar
3:35 – 4:30 pm ET * After the Show * Talk with the Faculty Directly!
Our projects frequently include collaborations with others. These collaborations can vary in the level of involvement and face-to-face engagement. While we may be adept at navigating these partnerships when the other entity is another US-based institution of higher education, what do we need to consider when we collaborate with other types of entities? What might differ in our approach?
Using a scientific example as our guide, we will develop a thorough approach to collaborations that helps us develop a plan for success. We will talk through various aspects of potential collaborations, the related things to keep in mind, and potential questions to ask. For example, will the collaborator need to be on our campus, will they need access to our systems, are they subject to the single audit requirements?
This session focuses on the questions to ask to get a full picture of the involvement of the collaborator. In some cases, we will have tried-and-true methods to share, but in others, we aim to help participants develop an approach for decisions that rely more on institutional policies and risk tolerance.

NCURA webinars use the Zoom Webinar 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.
