The GRC difference

Why grantees choose GRC

Research-backed

We mine compliance data before every session. Your training reflects the requirements that matter most — built from our compliance research.

Practitioner-led

Our instructors have conducted single audits. They explain requirements from the auditor's perspective — not just what the regulation says, but what they actually look for.

Certificate of completion

Every webinar includes a certificate of completion. Training costs are frequently allowable under 2 CFR 200.454(b) and chargeable to your award.

Audit-tested frameworks

Our compliance checklists are built from real audit fieldwork. They're organized the same way auditors work through them, so you know what's being tested and where your gaps are.

We work with grantees and auditors across the country

GRC serves nonprofits, housing authorities, universities, legal aid organizations, and government agencies that receive federal awards.
