Please join Gina Vessels, SRAS Post Award Manager, for one of our informational sessions on the monthly financial reports distributed by Sponsored Projects Accounting (SPA) for grant accounts. There will be a general review of the report structure and discussion of the information within the report, and there will be ample time for questions and discussion after the presentation. Please feel free to bring your own personal reports for individual review and questions after the session. Sessions last approximately an hour.
