November 15 - 19, 2004: Chicago, Illinois

The Employment and Training Administration's Office of Grants and Contract Management is pleased to announce an in-depth training opportunity for financial and administrative professionals.

During the week of November 15th in Chicago, Illinois, financial managers will learn the financial and administrative principles and practices that pertain to the One-Stop system and all other ETA-funded grant programs.

On November 16th we will focus on partners in the One-Stop system. We will discuss the identification of shared costs, shared cost budgets, cost allocation within the One-Stop system, and resource sharing. We would like to invite all recipients of partner programs, including recipients of funding from other federal agencies such as the Department of Education and the Department of Housing and Urban Development, to attend this session. On November 17th and 18th, we will focus solely on ETA funded grant programs.

This training is designed for workforce system professionals with day-to-day responsibilities for financial or accounting operations. Non-financial staff are welcome to attend; however, they may find some of the sessions overly technical if they have limited exposure to financial management issues. State and local WIBs are encouraged to forward this notice to pertinent staff.

While there is no registration fee for this training, participants are responsible for their own travel arrangements.
