• Programmatic Budget

    Posted by laura-cossey on July 30, 2024 at 3:43 pm

    Our organization builds online education platforms for educators at both the k-12 and higher education levels as well as do research for field building. We have always struggled with the best ways to identify our programmatic costs. Does anyone have any great ideas or resources to share? Thank you!

    Laura, Say more about the struggle to identify the programmatic costs. Is it a systems issue (ie no way to note on a timecard which hours are program vs admin), or?

    Hey, llevaba tiempo soñando con comprarme una guitarra eléctrica, pero entre facturas y gastos imprevistos nunca llegaba a reunir lo suficiente. Un compañero de trabajo me mencionó spin mama casino , y por curiosidad me registré. Las primeras partidas fueron normales, pero una noche probé el juego de tragaperras y logré un premio que cambió mi ánimo por completo.
