Is this staff training an allowable cost under our HUD award?
Likely yes — 2 CFR 200.472 allows training costs for employee development, and your award’s special conditions don’t restrict them. Verify both sources below before you commit — this informs your compliance judgment; it doesn’t replace it.

What it does

For organizations living with federal funding — HUD programs, uniform guidance, state pass-through requirements — the Compliance Assistant answers regulatory questions from the actual regulations plus your specific award terms.

It helps prepare for monitoring visits and audits, and every answer links to its source so your team can verify against the official text. The Assistant informs your compliance judgment; it never replaces it.
