Module 2.4: Navigating Agreements - 05 September 2023 - AM - ARMS Conference
This Elective is delivered in-person, over one (1) partial day:
- Tuesday 05 September 2023, 09:00AM - 12:30PM
The Navigating Agreements module is intended to provide the knowledge, skills, and tools necessary to understand the role of, and effectively manage, agreements in research administration across the research project lifecycle. The module aims to provide participants with an understanding of the different types of agreements used in research, the key components of an agreement, and the legal and financial implications of each component.
Participants will learn how to identify potential risks and liabilities associated with agreements and develop strategies to mitigate those risks. They will also gain an understanding of the negotiation process and strategies to ensure favorable terms for their institution. Additionally, the module will cover skills related to agreement drafting and review, compliance and regulatory issues, and monitoring and tracking agreement compliance through to completion.
The module is designed to provide all research management professionals with the tools and knowledge to understand and manage agreements throughout the lifecycle of a research project, from planning and proposals, to project setup, project management and closeout. Participants will be able to see how successful project outcomes can be achieved through good planning and the careful management of the agreement, while delivering value to the researcher and their organisation and protecting them both from potential legal and financial risks.
Who should attend?
This elective module is suitable for research management professionals from a wide range of backgrounds.
This module is written using examples from the Australian context, but the principles are broadly relevant to other Australasian jurisdictions.
Some experience in grant or contract administration may be useful but is not necessary. No legal background or training is required or assumed.
