CIHR - Update to Notice of Recommendation and Notice of Decision templates for the Project Grant competition
November 20, 2024 - CIHR has announced that Notices of Recommendation (NORs) and Notices of Decision (NODs) will be released in January for the Fall 2024 Project Grant competition, and, starting with this competition, CIHR is updating the way they present application results.
With this updated template for NORs and NODs, applicants will be able to see the zone in which their application ranks (e.g., in the bottom 25%, between 25% and 50%, between 50% and 75%, between 75% and 90%, or 90% and above), rather than their specific ranking.
Reminder - Message from the Tri-agency Presidents: Granting councils transitioning to a new CV template
November 20, 2024 - The presidents of the granting councils are pleased to announce that they will be gradually transitioning away from the Canadian Common CV (CCV) to a new narrative-style CV for our competitions.
The transition to a new tri-agency CV complements the work underway on the Tri-agency grants management solution (TGMS), a project to modernize the granting councils’ grants management systems to better support applicants, administrators, and reviewers. The new tri-agency CV will serve as the CV component of TGMS.
