Delivering training courses for environmental scientists 2024
1 month ago
Apply for funding to deliver training short courses within the NERC remit, focusing on areas of identifiable training need.
You must be:
- based at a UK research organisation eligible for NERC funding
- in a role that meets the individual eligibility requirements
Participants of the training should be aligned to NERC remit.
Total budget is £600,000 equating to 10 to 15 awards. All costs will be funded at 100% direct costs. Under certain circumstances, you may request up to £100,000.
Funded training initiatives should take place within a year of the grant being awarded.
Before applying for funding, check the following:
UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) has introduced new role types for funding opportunities being run on the new UKRI Funding Service.
For full details, visit .
Who is eligible to applyYou may only be involved in one application submitted to this funding opportunity.
The international project co-lead agreements with International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis IIASA and Norway do not apply to this funding opportunity.
You may include project partners who will contribute to the proposed training initiative.
Successful applicants from previous NERC Training Short Course (TSC) funding opportunities are eligible to apply for a TSC award and can apply to have their previously successful courses renewed. However, success in a previous NERC funding opportunity is not a guarantee that an award will be successful in this funding round and all applications will be subject to the same assessment process.
Existing NERC-funded Doctoral Training Partnerships (DTPs) and Centres for Doctoral Training (CDTs) are eligible to apply to this competition for funding to support training initiatives aligned with, but in addition to, their existing DTP and CDT student training programmes. Applications may not request funding to support activities already funded through active training grants. Applications must demonstrate that the proposed training is not duplicative of existing training.
Training courses delivered by NERC DTPs and CDTs must be open and advertised to attendees beyond the DTP or CDT. Places on courses must be offered according to the scheme priority criteria.
Equality, diversity and inclusionWe are committed to achieving equality of opportunity for all funding applicants. We encourage applications from a diverse range of researchers.
We support people to work in a way that suits their personal circumstances. This includes:
- career breaks
- support for people with caring responsibilities
- flexible working
- alternative working patterns
