The eRA Commons is the suite of software modules provided by NIH for your application and award management. This interactive session looks at various features and functions of eRA Commons as it relates to the grant process and your place in that process. The grants process is a complex path. Participants will be able to gain understanding about various aspects as we follow the path from application submission to closeout.

Note: In an effort to standardize terminology across the government, NIH is joining other federal agencies in using the term notices of funding opportunities (NOFOs) rather than funding opportunity announcements (FOAs). You will see both terms in use while we work to update our websites and resources.
