From: Huron Education at Huron Consulting Group [mailto:mktg at huroninfo.com] Sent: Tuesday, September 30, 2014 3:33 PM To: Mason, Linda Subject: Client Update: OMB Uniform Guidance FAQ If you have problems viewing this email, you can view it as a web page [https://news.huroninfo.com/reaction/_education/HE_ClientAlert_Header_650r2.jpg] ABOUT HURON EXPERTISE INSIGHTS CAREERS INVESTOR RELATIONS OMB Uniform Guidance: New and Updated Frequently Asked Questions COFAR has issued a second, updated set of frequently asked questions (FAQs) which address the new Uniform Guidance. The revised set of FAQs covers a number of new areas and incorporates both reprinted and revised responses from the first set of FAQs. Of the wide number of topics covered in the new set of FAQs, highlights include: 1. Clarified timing for implementation of the Uniform Guidance (Section 200.110) ? The new set of FAQs addresses timing considerations such as when the Uniform Guidance may be incorporated into an institution's F&A rates, when updated DS?2s will be accepted, and when Uniform Guidance will apply to new awards, continuations, and subawards. Key Takeaways ? The Uniform Guidance will apply to new awards made on or after December 26, 2014*. ? DS?2 revisions can be submitted for fiscal years beginning on or after December 26, 2014. ? F&A proposals based on the Uniform Guidance can be submitted when due for fiscal years that begin on or after December 26, 2014. ? Additionally, a grace period for the implementation of procurement practices of one full year will be allowed for the fiscal year beginning after December 26, 2014. *If a Federal awarding agency considers its incremental funding actions to be opportunities to change terms and conditions on previously made awards, the Uniform Guidance will apply to that Federal awarding agency's incremental funding actions also. 2. (Lack of) Clarity on changes to time and effort systems (Section 200.430) (Section 200.414) ? Many of the questions submitted to the OMB on the Uniform Guidance involved potential changes to current institutional time and effort systems, technologies and processes, and responses were included in the FAQs. Key Takeaways Changes to payroll certification processes can be implemented as institutions begin compliance with the new Uniform Guidance, and if a DS?2 update is necessary, the DS?2 should be updated to provide a high level summary of the processes that meet Federal requirements. Changes to current processes can be incremental or more significant, including the complete elimination of current institutional effort reporting systems, as long as the new processes (in place of effort reporting) meet the requirements of the Uniform Guidance. 3. Expanded guidance on simplified acquisition procedures (Section 200.320) ? The requirements for justifying procurement decisions at defined cost thresholds are outlined, as well as the application of these procedures to bulk purchases, payment types, and indirect expenditures. Key Takeaways A minimum of two price quotations are required for purchases at or above $3,000 (but under $150,000). However, exceptions may be made for sole sourcing. 4. Responses on prior approval requirements for currently active awards charging clerical and administrative salaries (Section 200.413) ? Some level of guidance is provided to institutions with active awards currently classified as major projects and accumulating charges for clerical and administrative salaries. Key Takeaways Institutions should evaluate the terms and conditions of active Federal awards and/or consult with the relevant awarding officials of active Federal awards to determine if and when pre?approval has been granted. Institutions may need to request prior written approval from the Federal awarding agency to continue charging those costs to new incremental funds. 5. Guidance on F&A rate extensions (Section 200.414) ? The FAQs clarify timing and eligibility for F&A rate extensions. Key Takeaways The one?time F&A rate extensions described in the Uniform Guidance may be requested once per rate negotiation cycle, and requests should be submitted at least 60 days prior to the due date of the next proposal. This means that subsequent one?time extensions (up to four years) are available if a renegotiation is completed between each extension request. 6. Added guidance on fixed amount awards and subawards (Sections 200.201, 200.332, 200.400 and 200.401) ? These sections address a number of questions such as the application of cost principles, budget standards for establishing fixed amount awards, end of award certifications, and the treatment of residuals on fixed amount awards. Key Takeaways Fixed price awards are not subject to a higher budget standard than other federal award mechanisms. Fixed price award amounts can be based on methods that establish a reasonable degree of certainty, e.g., past experience with similar types of work or estimates from bids, quotes, and catalog pricing. As long as budgets are determined in accordance with Uniform Guidance, cost principles are not formally used for compliance during the life of the award (e.g., they may be billed on milestones, may have ending residuals, etc). 7. Technical corrections: COFAR indicates several areas where technical corrections will be made or will be further explored based on feedback to date. Of specific note: ? Fringe benefits and direct costs (200.431?1): OMB will issue a technical correction to clarify that fringe benefits costs may be supported by either the F&A rate or the fringe benefit rate. ? Depreciation and cost sharing (200.436?1): OMB will also issue a technical correction to clarify that depreciation on the institutional contribution of buildings and equipment is allowable, unless law or agreement prohibits recovery. ? Internal controls (200.303?1): COFAR suggests that the usage of "should" was not intended to mean "must" with respect to internal controls complying with guidance in the "Standards for Internal Control in the Federal Government," issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, and the "Internal Control Integrated Framework," issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

There are about 60 significant changes, and the workshop will focus on the changes, not on all content. This training is intended for higher education research administrators, sponsored programs directors, financial officers, and other higher education employees who need to know the regulations for federal awards. The first day, December 7, will be focused on Administrative Regulations, and the second day, December 8, will be focused on Financial Regulations. Please reply to me your intent to come on either day or both. We have space set aside for 42 people, and when the room is full, registration will cease, and we will take a waiting list. Since there is not going to be a registration fee, the general attitude by participants tends to be somewhat less serious than workshops with a large registration fee. We will appreciate your communication if you find that you cannot attend after you register. We will provide materials at the workshop.

Stakeholders who cannot attend in person are invited to participate online. The draft agenda is here: Download Agenda (PDF). We expect this to be a highly interactive facilitated opportunity to voice your questions, concerns and suggestions regarding implementation of WIOA. Prior to the Town Hall, we would encourage all participants to review the WIOA material located at www.doleta.gov/wioa/. About the Town Hall The Region 4 Workforce Investment and Opportunity Act (WIOA) Town Hall is one in a series of national listening sessions designed to support strong implementation of the new legislation. It will be an opportunity for our broad stakeholder group to share their questions, insights and suggestions regarding the changes outlined in the WIOA legislation - all of which will help us at the U.S. Departments of Labor (USDOL), Education, and Health and Human Services to develop regulations with an eye toward service design and customer/stakeholder input. We are encouraging anyone who can to register and participate in-person. Realizing that some stakeholders will not be able to travel to Irving, Texas, we also have arranged WebEx capabilities for groups to participate online. Our aim for the day is also that attendees will leave with a common and clear understanding of USDOL's expectations for the WIOA implementation, a better insight into what key changes will be required of states and localities, and an enhanced sense of the required partnerships with the Offices of Career, Technical & Adult Education and Rehabilitation Services, and of TANF as a mandatory partner in the one-stop delivery system. The session will provide a great deal of structured feedback to the U.S. Departments of Labor, Education, and Health and Human Services around implementation challenges and considerations. To that end, the town hall is a great opportunity for attendees to be heard, and to play a dynamic role in the ongoing process of WIOA implementation. Download Agenda (PDF) Who Should Attend? State and local leaders who help to design and/or administer: * WIA/WIOA and Wagner-Peyser grants * Department of Education's Office of Career, Technical and Adult Education and Vocational Rehabilitation programs * TANF programs * Apprenticeship programs * Veterans employment and training programs * Secondary education systems * Higher education systems Stakeholders and partners that include: * Technical schools * Employers * Industry associations * Organized labor * Economic developers * Community and faith-based organizations * Other Workforce System partners Town Hall Location Sheraton DFW Airport Hotel 4440 West John Carpenter Freeway Irving, TX 75063 | 972-929-8400 Driving Directions | Local Area Map | Weather Stakeholders who are unable to participate in-person may register to participate online via WebEx.

Call for submissions CUR Application Period: Sept. 2-Nov. 5, 2014 As the undergraduate research community works to ensure that those in the U.S. Congress have a clear understanding of the research and education programs they fund, nothing more effectively demonstrates the value of undergraduate research than a student participant's words, work, and stories. Undergraduate research must be among the programs that members of Congress understand if it is to continue to be supported, and to grow. Students and their faculty mentors are invited to apply for the Council on Undergraduate Research's (CUR) 19th annual undergraduate poster session on Capitol Hill. In addition to other events, there will be an evening poster session and reception where students will have the opportunity to speak directly to members of Congress and demonstrate how they have been impacted by these programs. Please visit the website for more information about the submission process and Posters on the Hill program. Questions? Please contact Mary Pat Twomey, Manager for Student Programs, at mptwomey at cur.org.

[cid:image001.png at 01CFED20.F0183B50] http://www.OKJUR.com Call for Submissions The Oklahoma Journal of Undergraduate Research (OKJUR) Advisory Board is excited to announce the inaugural call for submissions of this new statewide initiative to publish the exemplary work of Oklahoma's undergraduate researchers working under the mentorship of Oklahoma faculty in all fields of study (major). OKJUR operates according to a rolling review policy whereby submissions are reviewed as they are received and expects to issue the first volume of articles in Spring 2015. About OKJUR publishes original research project findings, outcomes or creative products by undergraduate students while enrolled at any Oklahoma higher education institution. Qualifying research projects may be in any academic discipline or encompass interdisciplinary topics, but all work must have been conducted under the mentorship of an Oklahoma faculty member. Submission categories include: * Business * Education and Professional Studies * Fine Arts * Humanities * Life Sciences * Mathematics, Physical Sciences and Engineering * Social and Behavioral Sciences Note: Literature reviews are not eligible for publication in the OKJUR. Review Process The OKJUR maintains a double-blind review process that aims to ensure the scholastic value of academic research by equitably verifying the content and methodological validity of all submissions in a timely manner. All submissions are evaluated by at least two reviewers selected from a pool of eligible reviewers by the section editor(s) responsible for the submission's field of study. The submission's appropriate section editor will direct the review process and, subject to the approval of the OKJUR editor-in-chief, make publication decisions based on the recommendations of the reviewers. Submissions will be evaluated according to the criteria indicated in the OKJUR's "author guidelines" as well as any additional guidelines stipulated by the submission's section editor. Confidential and anonymous editorial review comments will be sent to authors for their information and use. Author Guidelines Unless otherwise stipulated in the submission's section policy guidelines, all submissions should adhere to the disciplinary mode of presentation including content, stylistic and bibliographic guidelines appropriate to the field of study. All submissions, regardless of field of study, should meet the following criteria: * The submission describes the purpose and significance of the research clearly for a general, multi-disciplinary audience. * The research described is original and relevant to the field of study. * The project is well designed and executed. * Results are thoughtfully interpreted and thoroughly analyzed. * Conclusions are logically supported through results and citations. * Supporting materials (illustrations, graphs, audio/video recordings and notes) reinforce descriptions and claims made in the submission. * The submission is well-written, efficiently organized and easy to follow. * The submission is free of spelling, grammatical and other writing errors. Please review carefully the appropriate section policies to ensure compliance with all submission guidelines. Copyright Notice The OKJUR does not retain copyright over published material and allows for publication in other venues. Authors should verify that their submissions do not conflict with the policies of other publications to which they may submit, and they should gain consent from the faculty member(s) who mentored the project to ensure that the submissions do not violate copyright restrictions. Note: A Publication Release form is required for all submissions. Join the Faculty Review Pool The OKJUR Advisory Board is recruiting current Oklahoma faculty researchers to serve as reviewers for the journal. We aspire to develop a statewide network of faculty experts in all fields of study to provide Oklahoma undergraduates with a valuable peer review experience. With more than one-hundred faculty already in the review pool, we are well on our way! If you are willing to review student research submitted to the OKJUR, please send the following information to Linda Mason (lmason at osrhe.edu) for consideration: * Name * Title * Academic Department * Institutional Affiliation * Topic Areas for Review * Curriculum Vitae Note: The OKJUR double-blind review process will be entirely online and will not require emailing attachments. Join the Editorial Team as an Undergraduate Copyeditor The OKJUR Advisory Board is recruiting current Oklahoma undergraduates to serve as copyeditors for the journal. Our goal is to assemble statewide teams of copyeditors to work closely with the OKJUR Section Editors in the preparation of manuscripts for publication. If you are interested in serving as a copyeditor, please send the following information to Tim O'Neil (tim.oneil at okstate.edu) for consideration: * Name * University/College * Major(s) * Expected Semester of Graduation (e.g. Spring 2016) * Email * Phone * Relevant Experience with Academic Writing Stay curious. _______________________________________________________ Tim O'Neil, Editor-in-Chief Oklahoma Journal of Undergraduate Research (http://www.OKJUR.com) Oklahoma State University, 334 Student Union, Stillwater, OK 74078 405.744.7313 | tim.oneil at okstate.edu -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
