Register Today: IDIS for CDBG Grantees Training - Fort Worth, TX; Seattle, WA; and Portland, OR


The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development’s (HUD) Office of Block Grant Assistance is pleased to announce a series of eight Integrated Disbursement and Information System (IDIS) training sessions this Fall for Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) grantees.
These sessions will provide CDBG grantees with hands-on training on the IDIS system, including recent updates. These sessions will specifically focus on CDBG requirements, screens, reporting, the new Section 108 component, and will provide an overview of Grant-Based Accounting (GBA).

Who Should Attend?


This training is open to CDBG grantees. For the Newark, Fort Worth, Seattle, Portland, Los Angeles, and San Francisco sessions, entitlement grantees will receive priority enrollment. For the Jacksonville session, which will focus on the State CDBG program, States will receive priority enrollment.
Only one representative per grantee will be accepted into the training. In addition, individuals who attended IDIS training for CDBG in 2013-14 will be placed on a waitlist. (These individuals may see an error when trying to register; they may email the IDIS Training Registrar to be placed on the waitlist).

Please note that submitting a registration request does not guarantee you a seat at the training. Due to limited space, registrations will be reviewed and approved prior to confirmation. You will receive a confirmation email if you are accepted into the training. Please do not make non-refundable travel arrangements until you receive a confirmation email from the Training Point of Contact.

For more information, visit the IDIS Training for CDBG Entitlement and State Grantees News pages.
