grant-admin-arch: Grant-Admin-News: NSF FastLane Training Sessions

[Research Services <Research_Services@orsa.uoregon.edu>]

Starting October 1, 2000, all proposals to the National Science Foundation
must be submitted through the web-based NSF FastLane system.  Not only will
all proposals have to be submitted via FastLane, but all other
administrative actions must be processed via FastLane  (e.g.,
grantee-approved no-cost extensions, requests for NSF approval on second
extensions or PI leaves, annual and final reports, etc.).  More information
on FastLane is available on ORSA's web site under Features at
http://darkwing.uoregon.edu/~orsp/orsa.html.

ORSA is offering several workshops over the next two months on how to use
FastLane, including how to prepare and submit proposals and convert files to
PDF, along with an overview of the other modules available in the system.
We strongly encourage all faculty PIs and department grant administrators
who currently have or plan to request NSF grants to attend a FastLane
workshop.

The next workshop is scheduled for Tuesday, August 22, 1-3 pm, in the UO
Employee Training Facility Lab, Suite 302 University Center Building, 720 E
13th Ave. (across from Sacred Heart Hospital on 13th).  This is a hands-on
training session with ample time for questions (and it's free!).  Workshops
in September will be announced soon.

Call ORSA at 6-5131 (or send an e-mail to
Research_Services@orsa.uoregon.edu) to sign up for this class.
