Description

Everything you need to know about indirect rates for nonprofits is in this 4 hour course.  We go through every important aspect about indirect rates and allocations under the Uniform Guidance (UG).  Specifically, we discuss the changes and new options that the UG has on indirects.  Included is a practical exercise to build an indirect rate.  We finish the session with the new 55 cost principles as to what is allowable or unallowable.

Update:

The original 4 hr session will follow this update to the UG which has minimal impact on indirect rates.  The OMB Update revising the UG occurred on August 13, 2020 to go into effect on November 12, 2020.

The content in the following original session starts on slide 6, 7, 8 and continues on slide 14 with no changes to the end of the 4 hr session.  Slides 9 through 13 in the original session have been removed and this update on the UG impacting indirect rates replaces those slides.
