Workshop: FULL COST CALCULATION Wednesday 6 September - Amsterdam

Workshop: HOW TO BUILD AND MANAGE A SUCCESSFUL EU RESEARCH CONSORTIUM

Bringing together a strong consortium and managing it through the life of a project is a complex task demanding specialised skills.  This highly-rated Workshop explores all aspects of the process including selecting partners, assessing the health of a consortium, financial and project management skills.  This Workshop is of special value to researchers thinking of taking an active part in putting together FP7 proposals, and to those supporting/advising them.  PLEASE FORWARD THE ANNOUNCEMENT TO YOUR RESEARCHERS!
We will rerun this workshop on Friday 10 November in Amsterdam and Friday 1 December in London.

Show & Tell: HOW TO SUCCEED IN FP7

Friday 29 September - Amsterdam
Good science is not enough!  Hundreds of excellent projects are not selected.  This Show & Tell focuses on the things that make the difference between success and failure.  Starting with an overview of how FP7 is organised, it will concentrate on key factors in project evaluation:  best practice in project management, financial control, exploitation and dissemination.  It will also offer new approaches to ethical and gender issues.  PLEASE FORWARD THE ANNOUNCEMENT TO YOUR RESEARCHERS!
We will rerun this Show & Tell on Tuesday 17 October, Friday 17 November and Tuesday 12 December in Amsterdam
