What are audio seminars?

NCMA’s audio seminars are live, 90-minute events, much like talk radio programs. Generally, the speakers use prepared slides (or a topical outline) that are sent to the participating sites through e-mail approximately two days prior to the seminar. We use a professional, third-party company to engineer and broadcast the program, work the registration, and run the phone bridge. The typical format of the program is for the speaker(s) to make a 60-minute presentation, followed by 30-minute Q&A period (both live over the phone and responding to questions sent in through the Internet during the program). Participants will earn 1.5 CPEs.

How much do these cost?

For one low fee per seminar, there is no limit to the number of people that can listen and participate at each site. For those who cannot participate live, we have professionally recorded audio CDs (with all seminar materials included as PDF documents) available for purchase. Seminar prices are $189 per site.

How do I order a previously aired audio seminar?

Recordings are available for purchase approximately two weeks after the original air date. You may contact KRM directly at 1-800-775-7654 to place an order or follow the links listed in the Audio Recording Sales section to order online.

  • October 30: Contract Administration Challenges on Biotech, Medical and Life Sciences Contracts

    The focus of this seminar is on biotech, medical, and life sciences contracts, including grants. Issues related to these types of contracts have become increasingly common, and there seems to be a knowledge deficit among contract administration and legal professionals on some of the unusual nuances these agreements pose. This seminar will address these current issues and how companies can deal with them.

October, 2008

  • October 09: Contract Law Basics - Compliance Programs for Government Contractors

    The new FAR part 3.10 rules make formal government contract-specific Compliance Programs mandatory for many contractors; even those firms whose contracts fall below the threshold for coverage need a Compliance Program. This audio seminar will explore key compliance issues, including: the False Claims Act and False Statements Act coverage of government contractors; the elements of a code of conduct and ethics; internal controls for contractors; compliance reviews of existing contracts; special compliance issues involving overseas contracts and primarily commercial companies; the intersection of compliance laws and other state and federal laws, including employment law and Sarbanes-Oxley.

One of the keys to success lies in developing a performance based business arrangement that aligns the interests of both buyer and seller to ensure program goals are met. This discussion focuses on how both public and private entities have structured business strategies that succeed in delivering quality supplier performance.
