Stimulus Webinars: Reporting on Recovery Funds

Stimulus Webinars from Recovery.gov

To ensure that the public receives as much information as possible on the implementation of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA), Federal Agencies and recipients of ARRA funding are required to report dozens of data elements. Because such a wide variety of information is required - and since some elements are being reported for the first time - the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) prepared a series of webinars to train Federal Agencies and recipients of ARRA funding on how to comply with their reporting responsibilities. This series - "Implementing Guidance for the Reports on Use of Funds Pursuant to the American Reinvestment and Recovery Act of 2009" - is divided into 7 parts:
