[Flex] Planning MTDC Training for APs

[Helen Gordon]

Hi everyone-
Since we are so close to December, I am trying to get the Dept/Center 
Admins and their #2s together with Dave, Jenn, Sue & me to help create 
the strategy and timeline for training our APs on WHOIgrants and MTDC.

Even though all the details of certain policies are not completed, we 
can still train on what we do know, the changes in WHOIgrants, and how 
to find the information in WHOIgrants.

Other topics:
Fabricated Equipment: Your suggestion of having Indirect Costs show F&A 
with a value of $0 on the WHOI budget has been implemented.

Period Dates: More than one of you has brought up the idea of using the 
same methodology for the 2016-2017 cross-year 'period' (two mini-periods 
equalling 1 12-month period). Let's discuss and strategize how we will 
approach this - especially for the cases when we are collaborating with 
another institution. I would like the user documentation to reflect what 
we decide 'best practices' will be so the training is consistent.

When is everyone available?
Want to meet early next week to plan our December training campaign?

Please let me know what would work (and what times are definitely out!).

thanks,
Helen
