What's the Difference Between a Grant and a Cooperative Agreement?

This Thompson Grants webinar will help you and your team to understand the differences between a grant and a cooperative agreement to enable you to better leverage your federal funding. While similar, a cooperative agreement is an award of financial assistance that is used to enter into the same kind of relationship as a grant; but provides for substantial involvement between the federal agency and the recipient in carrying out the activity contemplated by the award. Terms and conditions are very important in any kind of grant or cooperative agreement because recipients must agree and then comply with the requirements included therein. Understanding the key differences between these funding mechanisms will better enable attendees to better negotiate conditions that can best set your organization up for success. 

Join leading grants professional, Sandra Swab, as she shares best practices under both grants and cooperative agreements. Live webinar attendees will earn CPE credits and have the opportunity to ask their own questions.
