SWGMG GRANT SUMMIT A SUCCESS!

Thank you to all of you that registered and were able to make the change to a virtual platform. We're happy with the outcome of the Summit and look forward to bring that back again in 2024!

The slide decks from the Summit have been placed on the Grants website under the "Statewide Grant Manager's Group (SWGMG)" banner.

Using a Grant Management System?

We've been receiving a lot of inquiries regarding what grant management solutions departments have tried and have been successful. Because we don't have a pulse on every department, we would love to hear what you are using (if any). If you have an online grant management system, please complete the very brief survey. You response to this email will help potential system seekers with determining a good fit for themselves and provide a jumping off point. The only purpose of this is to gather basic information on systems and share with those that reach out to us seeking guidance.

The OSC Grants office crerated a complete guide on Grant Management System Standards. This document will assist in providing the basic requirements for a grant management system.

Grant Accounting 101

The Grant Manager 101 slide decks are complete, they have been vetted by several, and here we sit with an incomplete product! Part of the reason we haven't issued anything is due to the fact that we have very limited staff (2) and neither of us are accountants, so delivering the training successfully poses a challenge.

We're looking for a group of approximately 3-4 people to help us determine the best way to deliver this training. The work should be minimal but we will most likely meet several times over the next couple of months. If you are interested, please reach out to gina.salazar@state.co.us .

First meeting will be the week of March 21.
