研究与创新项目赠款管理与合规

培训项目概述

Grant-funded research and innovation projects operate in a highly regulated environment where funding agencies demand transparency, accountability, measurable results, and strict compliance with financial and procurement rules, making effective grant management and compliance for research and innovation projects critical to funding continuity and institutional credibility.

The Grant Management & Compliance for Research & Innovation Projects Training is designed to equip participants with the practical knowledge and tools required to manage donor-funded research and innovation grants effectively. The programme focuses on the full grant lifecycle, from award acceptance and implementation to reporting, audits, and project closure, ensuring alignment with donor requirements, institutional policies, and international best practices.

This training bridges the gap between research excellence and compliant project execution, enabling institutions and project teams to safeguard funding, deliver results, and build credibility with international donors and funding agencies. This training also builds on practical grant management approaches similar to those applied in our Effective Grants Management Programme in Manila, with added emphasis on research and innovation compliance.
