Description

Be prepared and ready to submit an NSERC Alliance Option 1 application.

The NSERC Alliance program, which replaces NSERC’s Partnership programs (that included Engage, Collaborative Research and Development “CRD”, Industrial Research Chairs “IRC”, and Strategic Programs), is markedly different than the former suite of programs.

NSERC will be visiting the University of Guelph to deliver important updates and considerations for researchers preparing applications for Option 1, which have evolved since the last workshop offered on-campus in May 2019.

This important session will focus on:

  • Key program guidelines, including partner eligibility/leveraging ratios
  • Evaluation criteria
  • Best practices and tips for success in applying to this competitive grant program
  • Key program changes and nuances that have been realized since the launch of Option 1

If you are a faculty member planning to apply to NSERC Alliance Option 1 in 2020, we strongly encourage you to make time for this session to maximize the opportunities for you and your research team to submit a competitive proposal.
