Training on NASA Grants and Cooperative Agreements
This course explores the historical evolution of Federal awards and describes the various types of Federal assistance available to the public. This training also provides participants with insights into the intricacies of the financial assistance process, valuable knowledge on how the various financial assistance mechanisms operate, and the statutory authorization and regulations that serve as the bedrock for Federal assistance awards at NASA.
