Navigate: Advanced Budgeting Task-Based/Hourly Budgets

This course exposes the learner to more advanced budgeting topics than those found in Navigate: Fundamentals and Navigate: Budgeting Basics courses. It is designed to provide immersive complex task-based and hour-based budget development and preparation training to the learner actively engaged in research administration. Learners will participate in class walk-through demonstrations, discussions of budget-building and problem-solving strategies typical in the context of proposal submission, and then complete a reinforcing budget development homework assignment.
