“When starting the course I thought it would be impossible to get through all of the material that was going to be covered, but we worked through it at just the right pace so that we understood it but did not get lost along the way.”

“I was really impressed how SSA was able to tailor a course to the specific USG agency grants management regulations and needs of our new implementing partners and include hands-on exercises and practical exams which will help enforce the many learning points. Our partners should now have the knowledge and confidence to successfully implement their programs which will ensure that grants management capacity is enhanced and sustained locally.

“The Yellowbook course that Sustainability Solutions offers is the only one where clients and auditors are trained within the same rules so that all are working off the same page. It’s certainly informative and allows auditor and recipient to be aware of the current allowable expenditures that the US Government accepts as well as keeping the auditor up to date with Yellowbook standards.”
