Book excerpt: The Dept. of Educ. (DoE) awards $45 billion in grants each year to school districts, states, and other entities. In addition, the Amer. Recovery and Reinvest. Act of 2009 provided an additional $97 billion in grant funding. In a series of reports from 2002 to 2009, DoE's Inspector General cited a number of grantees for failing to comply with financial and programmatic requirements of their grant agreements. This report determined: (1) what progress DoE has made in implementing a risk-based approach to grant monitoring; (2) to what extent DoE's program offices have the expertise necessary to monitor grantees' compliance with grant program requirements; and (3) to what extent info. is shared within DoE to ensure the effectiveness of grant monitoring.
