Negotiating Sponsored Agreements:
Challenging Language in Grants and Contracts
Friday, February 24, 2017, 9:30 am to 12:00 pm
LMA, Gordon Hall, Waterhouse Room, 106
Join us for a REACH Advanced opportunity, open to all research administrators. Sponsored agreements come in a variety of shapes and sizes. The type of sponsor, as well as the type of work the researcher performs, both play a large part in the form and content of an agreement. Certain terms and conditions may not fit within Harvard’s policies and procedures, which can require additional levels of negotiation and approvals. We will discuss the most common issues and shed light on best practices for all those involved in finalizing a sponsored agreement.
