Description

One of the most time-consuming activities in the delivery of grants and contributions programs is in the assess stage of the 8As. In this course, you’ll get an overview of the project assessment framework and other elements, including environmental considerations, what to do if the applicant is a lobbyist and how to identify any conflict of interest.

During the session, you will be provided with a completed project application form and program guide from a sample AAFC program. You’ll review the application, identify eligibility issues and areas that require further information.

• After participating in this course, you’ll be able to:
• Understand programs’ Terms and Conditions
• Use different types of assessments
• Ask key questions and know where to seek the answers
• Know the relevant tools for project and applicant assessment
• Contact the recipient during the assessment
• Make recommendations for funding

This course is the second in AAFC's Grants and Contributions Training series, which includes an overview of program delivery at AAFC, from program design to project closure and audit.
