Every funder and institution will have their own specific approach that might differ from ours, but the core concepts covered are transferable.  \nPART 1: INTRODUCTION  \nPutting Principles into Practice  \nUsing research budgeting principles and Excel, we will:  \ni. Review the guidelines provided by Mawazo and how to apply them to create your research budget  \nii. Create a timeline of all key activities in your project and the time required to complete them  \niii. Create an assumptions sheet with justifiable estimates of your project requirements and corresponding costs  \niv. Create a budget of all expected project costs based on assumptions and estimates  \nv. Create an expense tracker to record actual vs. budgeted expenses and grant balances  \nWe will use the Sample Collection component of M. Mawazo’s  \nproject as tool to learn how to create a research budget using Excel.  \nPlease download the following documents on the course webpage:  \ni. M. Mawazo’s Research Proposal  \nii. M. Mawazo’s Sample Collection Budget  \niii. Mawazo Institute Budget Template  \nPART 2: BUDGET GUIDELINES  \nCheck the rules.  \nReviewing Budget Guidelines   \nAt the Mawazo Institute, we have specific rules and guidelines for how grantees should structure their research project budgets and track research expenses. This includes:  \n• Timeline, Assumptions, Budget and Expense Tracking templates  \n• Eligible and ineligible costs  \n• Expense categorization system  \nEvery funder and institution will have their own budget template and guidelines. Please review these instructions carefully and follow all the rules provided when submitting a budget to a particular entity.  \nReviewing Budget Guidelines  \nPART 3: PROJECT TIMELINE","cbCaibLJcu5FbuXk","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaibLJcu5FbuXk","pdf",2993794,49,"English","# Lesson Objectives\n# Part 1: Introduction\n## Putting Principles into Practice\n# Part 2: Budget Guidelines\n## Reviewing Budget Guidelines\n# Part 3: Project Timeline","[{\"question\":\"What outputs will participants create using Excel in this lesson?\",\"answer\":\"Participants will review budget guidelines, build a complete project timeline, create an assumptions sheet with justified estimates, produce a budget of expected costs, and set up an expense tracker for actual versus budgeted expenses and grant balances.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the lesson handle differences between funders and institutions?\",\"answer\":\"It notes that every funder and institution may use different approaches and templates, but the core concepts covered are transferable when applying the provided guidance.\"},{\"question\":\"Which budget rules and guidelines are emphasized by the Mawazo Institute?\",\"answer\":\"The lesson emphasizes rules for structuring research project budgets and tracking research expenses, including timeline, assumptions, budget and expense tracking templates, eligible versus ineligible costs, and an expense categorization system.\"}]","Creating a Budget with Excel - Lesson Objectives - June 2020 | PDF",1789176686]
