September 30, 2024
2:00 – 3:30 pm ET * Webinar

Completing an RPPR can be a daunting challenge especially if one is new to the process. This session will go through an actual Progress Report (RPPR), section by section in detail explaining the requirements that NIH will review. The session will go over addressing the common errors and warnings and how to avoid the common pitfalls that result in a late submission or a non-compliant RPPR that can result in further inquiry from NIH. This session will go over the difference between SNAP and Non-SNAP RPPRs, Multiple component RPPRs, completion of the Budget Section H for applicable activity codes and dive into HSS/ASSIST for Human Subjects reporting requirements. Difference between Annual, Interim, and Final reports will also be discussed.

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.
