Grants Information Sessions

On request by university officials, NSERC holds information sessions each year for the benefit of university researchers and administrators. New faculty members and those submitting a grant application are advised to attend.

In 2009, the sessions will take place from mid-August to the end of September. If your institution requests a session, the details will appear in our 2009 Grants Information Sessions Schedule. If you would like a session at your institution but find the above period inconvenient, NSERC will accept your request to schedule a session at a different time of the year. To request an information session, please use the form linked under Related Information below.

These half-day sessions will cover:

• the preparation and submission of Discovery Grant applications;
• NSERC policies and regulations that pertain to grants;
• the peer review process;
• changes to programs.

Evaluation Group member(s) from your institution, or one nearby, will join NSERC staff to share their experience and knowledge of the application process.
