Federal Auditing Information Service for Higher Education
provides timely, authoritative information to help you prepare for and manage audits mandated by the federal government. The higher education community has always been vitally concerned with accuracy and accountability in financial reporting. But today's pressures on auditors — and in fact everyone involved in the auditing process — are more intense than ever and come from every direction possible, including the Office of Inspector General (OIG), the media, the GAO, Congress, community and political leaders, and accounting and consulting firms themselves, to name a few.

The service includes a comprehensive softbound book, campus-wide access to a subscriber-only Web site, and the monthly newsletter, Federal Auditing News for Colleges and Universities.

A Guide to Managing Federal Grants for Colleges and Universities
is an easy-to-use service that will save you valuable time and money in your management of federal grant funds. Managing sponsored programs effectively has never been more challenging … and with today's tight budgets it has never been more important. The challenges you face on campus now are technological, administrative, and regulatory. The pace of change from Washington — new regulations, new policies, new interpretations of existing policies, changes to circulars, mandatory education programs ... not to mention the government's and agencies' move towards the electronic grant process — is accelerating at a dizzying rate.

Keep the changing federal grants picture in focus with campus-wide access to the regularly updated, subscriber-only Web site, printed appendix documents, Federal Grants News for Colleges and Universities monthly newsletter, Federal Agency Daily updates on the Web site, and Federal Agency Weekly e-mail alerts.
