How to Apply
The total program funds available for 2019-20 is $10000. We anticipate the typical award to be: $1500-2500 for application type 1, $500-$1000 for application type 2. The applicant is encouraged (but not required) to use the CINP support to leverage additional sources of funding.
Applications are accepted on a continuing basis, and must be submitted to the CINP Executive Director at huberg@cinp.ca at least 2 months (preferably even earlier) before the expected date of travel. A standing committee consisting of: CINP Executive Director, Chair of the Education & Training SWG, and one representative of the CINP Board will evaluate applications as they are submitted and provide prompt feedback or decision to the applicant (typically within 2 weeks).
The application form can be obtained below.
The applicant is expected to make their case for funding according to the training or scientific opportunity that will be enabled by the travel, the quality of the applicant, and the need for funds.
