Research Compliance Across the Life Cycle: From Current & Pending Support to Effort Reporting  

October 14, 2025
2:00 – 3:30 pm ET * Webinar
3:35 – 4:30 pm ET * After the Show * Talk with the Faculty Directly!

Research compliance is not a single checkpoint—it’s an ongoing responsibility that spans the entire life cycle of an award. From the proposal stage to project closeout, institutions must ensure transparency, accuracy, and alignment with evolving federal regulations. This session will guide research administrators through critical compliance touchpoints, beginning with disclosure obligations such as Current and Pending (or Other) Support, and concluding with post-award responsibilities such as effort reporting. Participants will gain practical insights for managing disclosures, ensuring appropriate oversight, and navigating emerging regulatory expectations. This webinar will provide a comprehensive overview of compliance obligations from pre-award to closeout. Participants will explore best practices for aligning internal processes with federal regulations, sponsor requirements, and institutional policies.

Learning Objectives

By the end of this session, participants will be able to:

• Identify key compliance requirements at each stage of the research award lifecycle, from proposal to closeout.
• Explain the purpose, content, and federal expectations for Current and Pending (or Other) Support disclosures and how they relate to research integrity and transparency
• Recognize common institutional responsibilities related to non-financial and financial compliance.
• Explain core concepts in effort reporting and alternative methods for compensation compliance.
• Evaluate the impact of emerging policies and guidance on compliance operations and institutional readiness.
• Differentiate between institutional and individual responsibilities in maintaining research compliance and identifying potential conflicts of interest or commitment.
• Articulate the potential consequences of non-compliance for both individuals and the institution.
• Apply best practices and implement internal controls to proactively manage compliance risks and avoid common audit findings.

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

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.
