Commissioner of administration requirement to develop and provide grants management training

SF 2999 requires Minnesota's Commissioner of Administration to create and deliver an online grants management training program for state agency staff. The training must cover essential topics like grant management policies, fraud indicators, and job-specific skills, and include a required exam. All state employees assigned grant management duties must complete initial training before starting and annual refresher training each year. This bill directly affects state agency staff handling federal or state grants, aiming to standardize training across departments. (Minnesota Statutes 2024, section 16B.97, amended by adding subdivision 6).
