This workshop is designed specifically for disaster recovery grantees and will provide an overview of performing key Disaster Recovery Grant Reporting (DRGR) tasks; including new features in DRGR. The goal of the workshop is to teach grantees how to effectively tell their community's recovery story and meet reporting requirements.

Workshop Format

Virtual workshop: This workshop takes all the best parts of the in-person DRGR workshop and presents them in a consolidated, interactive, webinar format. This workshop will be delivered over three days in sessions that will run 3.5 hours each day. Each session will include live instruction and demonstrations as well as break-out sessions that provide participants with an opportunity to practice case studies in a mock-DRGR training environment.

In-person workshops: These in-person workshops provide hands on instruction in a classroom environment. Each workshop is two full days of instruction and will include presentations, demonstrations, and exercises using a mock-DRGR training environment. There are multiple offerings of these workshops, please submit an enrollment request for the location closest to you.

Training Objectives

Participants will:

  • Understand and use DRGR functions in all modules
  • Work in a hands-on environment to apply the class lessons to case study exercises
