Fiscal And Strategic Technical Assistance

UNCF’s Fiscal And Strategic Technical Assistance Program (FASTAP) was created in 1994 to deliver services and technical assistance to strengthen the academic, fiscal and administrative management systems and personnel of UNCF member institutions. Through FASTAP, participating institutions have access to “best practices” in fiscal management and information on strengthening fiscal stability, meeting new accreditation standards and improving financial aid operations.

An expanded FASTAP that is more proactive, compelling and inclusive is needed and requested by UNCF member presidents and administrators. UNCF will therefore place FASTAP under the umbrella of the Institute and invest more resources into its operation. Ensuring that member institutions are fiscally responsible will be a core component of any major UNCF capacity-building effort.
