Conference and Training Fund
Conference and Training Fund provides an opportunity for early career researchers to apply for funding to attend conferences to disseminate their research findings or to attend training to learn new skills.
The fund prioritises early career applicants who will have greater participation in a conference. The fund also prioritises training opportunities of a similar scope to attending a conference, where it can be demonstrated that the training opportunity would allow the recipient to learn a new skill or knowledge, which could also be shared or implemented within the wider team. In both scenarios, it would be necessary to demonstrate how the conference or training opportunity would benefit the recipient鈥檚 career development.
