A Canadian Common CV (CCV) workshop will be held at Brescia in June, in anticipation of upcoming Summer and Fall Tri-Council grant opportunities, such as CIHR’s Foundation and Project grant programs. The CIHR Foundation grant Notice of Intent to Apply deadline is expected to be late July and will require some version of a CIHR CCV. The SSHRC Insight Grants competition in the Fall, will continue to use the “old” Web-based CV platform and has not been migrated to the Research Portal.

Workshop overview: A CCV is quite often a required attachment for primary applicants and co-applicants when applying for various grant opportunities that use online application interfaces (CIHR, SSHRC, NSERC etc.). The CCV allows researchers to have a single CV that they can use to apply to multiple agencies. Building and maintaining a CCV can also be a time-consuming task. Researchers/applicants should give themselves enough time to complete the CCV process. This workshop will include 1) an overview of the basics of registering and establishing a CCV using the online system; 2) how to select a funding CV type; 3) how the various CCVs are linked to grant application portals; 4) and other functional components of the CCV. Time will be reserved for specific questions.

Date: Tuesday June 7, 2016

Time: 9:30am – 11:00am

Location: Cypress Meeting Room (Clare Hall)
