UKRO are holding a number of training events designed to provide participants with an overview of the Marie Curie Individual Fellowships (Intra-European (IEF), International Outgoing (IOF), and International Incoming (IIF)) and the Reintegration Grants (European (ERG) and International (IRG)). These sessions also provide those wishing to submit an application with a deeper understanding of the format of Marie Curie proposals and the key issues which need to be addressed in the planning and writing of a proposal.

The training event is designed for researchers interested in submitting a proposal to the Marie Curie Individual Fellowships, which closes on the 17th August, or the second cut of date for the Reintegration Grants on the 7th September. The sessions will include a presentation on the schemes, highlighting changes that have occurred since the 2009 call, provide a forum for discussion and enable applicants to raise any queries relating to the schemes and preparing a proposal.

Each session will last for half a day and will run in late mid-May. Further details will be made available closer to the date and will be sent to registered participants via email, however the venues and times are:
